I had a good working day yesterday, I made some changes, and I have no idea how I broke it. I'm sure this is a typo somewhere, but I don't see it.
Any changes made to the nested model in the form are not saved at all, the development log shows the passing attributes - and they look in the correct format, but they simply are not updated at all.
I have a model Userthat refers to Biographylike this:
class User
include Mongoid::Document
include Mongoid::Timestamps
field :first_name, :type => String
field :last_name, :type => String
devise :database_authenticatable, :recoverable, :rememberable, :trackable, :validatable
references_one :biography
accepts_nested_attributes_for :biography
end
class Biography
include Mongoid::Document
include Mongoid::Timestamps
field :content, :type => String
field :role, :type => String
field :is_crew, :type => Boolean
referenced_in :user
end
And finally, my form (here I use a simple form, but for the most part it is very similar to formtastic):
<%= simple_form_for [:manage, @user], :html => {:multipart => true}, :position => :left do |f| %>
<h2>Login details</h2>
<%= f.input :email, :input_html => {:class => "text"} %>
<%= f.input :first_name, :input_html => {:class => "text"} %>
<%= f.input :last_name, :input_html => {:class => "text"} %>
<div class="biography">
<h2>Biography</h2>
<%= f.simple_fields_for :biography do |biography_form| %>
<%= biography_form.input :role, :input_html => {:class => "text"} %>
<%= biography_form.input :content, :as => :text, :input_html => {:class => "textarea"} %>
<%= biography_form.input :is_crew, :as => :boolean %>
<%- end -%>
</div>
<%= f.submit "Save user", :class => "submit mid" %>
<% end %>
And some conclusion from my development log, because the answers are there, and I just don't see them:
