Voting buttons, Yes and No. Rails 4 - ruby-on-rails

Question

Hi I'm adding voting to my site. Users can vote Yes or No. I made the form but it returns an error, only for the Yes button
<%= form_for([#post, #post.votes.build]) do |c| %>
<%= c.input value: 1, type: :hidden %>
<%= c.submit :Yes, class: "btn btn-large btn-primary" %>
<% end %>
This is error: We're sorry, but something went wrong.
In theory I want to make something like this form:
<div class="text-success">
Votează inițiativa<br>
<button class="btn btn-large btn-primary">PRO</button> sau
<button class="btn btn-danger">CONTRA</button>
</div>
See my controller:
class VotesController < ApplicationController
def new
end
def create
#post = Post.find(params[:id])
#votes = #post.votes.create(votes_params)
#votes.user = current_user
#votes.save
redirect_to #votes
end
private
def votes_params
votes_params = params.require(:votes).permit(:stare)
end
end
See my model:
class Vote < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :user, dependent: :destroy
belongs_to :post
end
How do I do this?

You'll need to post your actual error -- generally by typing heroku logs (sounds like you've got it running in production)
From what I can see, I'd try fixing the error like this:
<%= form_for([#post, #post.votes.build]) do |c| %>
<%= c.input value: 1, type: :hidden %>
<%= c.submit :Yes, class: "btn btn-large btn-primary" %>
<% end %>
def create
#post = Post.find(params[:id])
#votes = #post.votes.create(votes_params)
#votes.save
redirect_to #post
end
private
def votes_params
params.require(:post).permit(:stare).merge(user_id: current_user.id)
end
I think your params hash will be somewhat malformed - you'd need to post it to help us appreciate how to fix the error properly
