I want a list of contacts to display without the contact name being
linked (clickable) even though it's related in Rails. I've started by
trying to use a field override, even though I have the feeling based
on the documentation that it may still add the link.

I cannot get the field override to work at all, however. The model is
Contact and the controller is ContactsController. The helper I'm
trying is:

    module ContactsHelper
      def contacts_addresses_column(record)
        "Name #{record.email_1}"
      end
    end

which is just trying to put some identifiable garbage into the
addresses column. (I'm trying that column because it's static and not
linked, so should be simpler than using the linked name column, but
the same problem occurred when I tried the name).

I've tried every permutation I can think of for placing the module (in
the model, after the model, in the contacts_helper.rb file) and
pluralizing bits of the method name, but nothing ever happens ... I
just get the same (normal) data in the address column.

What am I doing wrong? And is this the way to keep AS from putting a
link around the data in a column?

Thanks.
