accepts_nested_attributes_for with has_many => :through Options

Question

I have two models, links and tags, associated through a third, link_tags. The following code is in my Link model.

Associations:

class Link < Acti         


        

Answer 1

You need to build a tag in your controller or in the view

def new
  @link = @current_user.links.build
  @link.tags.build
end

#in your view you can just use the association name
<% f.fields_for :tags do |tag_form| %>
