How is attr_accessible used in Rails 4?

Question

attr_accessible seems to no longer work within my model.

What is the way to allow mass assignment in Rails 4?

Answer 1

1) Update Devise so that it can handle Rails 4.0 by adding this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'devise', '3.0.0.rc' 

Then execute:

$ bundle

2) Add the old functionality of attr_accessible again to rails 4.0

Try to use attr_accessible and don't comment this out.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'protected_attributes'

Then execute:

$ bundle
