Take care!

Believe the reason it wasn't working for my real app is due to the fact the app is using the desert plugin, with the User model defined in two source files. When I switched over to using rails_fu as a gem it appears to be working.

So my apologies for casting any doubt on the quality of the documentation. Thanks for writing this great plugin. vote_fu FTW!

Cheers.

The documentation is currently very bad. It got outdated over time, and I've put off updating it until I can get the new version out the door. <br><br>If you send me a gist or snippet with your migration and your model I can help you get it working.

If you send me a gist or snippet with your migration and your model I can help you get it working.

But no matter what I put as VoteableModel (even with nothing) it generates the same migration.

I have put acts_as_voteable on a model and acts_as_voter on my user model, but when I try to do the following:

user.vote_for(comment)

I get “NoMethodError: undefined method `user_id' for #<Vote:0×7f5ed4355540>”

I'm pretty sure I did what the documentation states, but it just isn't working. Any ideas? Or better yet, it would be great to get updated doco.

Thanks.
