Thanks Bruno, thats exactly what I needed. On a similar note, my site is now returning undefined method 'related_tags'. It seems like it is not looking into the tag model in the community engine plugin where said method is located. Could this be a problem with desert? I tried creating a tag.rb file in my app/models directory to try and lead rails to the correct file but that didn't work. Any ideas?
p.s. Thanks for all the help everyone, I know I ask a ton of questions:) On Jul 28, 10:34 am, Bruno Bornsztein <[email protected]> wrote: > This line, in ce/app/models/tag.rb: > > require_dependency File.dirname(__FILE__) + > '/../../plugins/acts_as_taggable_on_steroids/lib/tag.rb' > > Just requires the tag model from the taggable_on_steroids plugin, and adds > some methods to the class. > > > > On Mon, Jul 26, 2010 at 7:13 PM, Edward Funger <[email protected]> wrote: > > I've been working on integrating the acts_as_taggable_on plugin into > > community engine.
