I've read the Rails Envy AAF tutorial at
http://railsenvy.com/2007/2/19/acts-as-ferret-tutorial and its given me
some really good ideas.

My problem lies in having AAF search the target Model's child tables.

I have no problem at all doing something like:
    acts_as_ferret :fields => [:title, :update_collection, :member_name]

    def member_name
        return "#{self.member.username}"
    end

However when I try to query child tables like such...
    def update_collection
        self.place_updates.collect { |update| update.description }.join
' '
    end
I have no luck.

I know the method is working because if I do something like

raise Model.find(5).update_collection.inspect it returns a string with
all descriptions.

Any ideas? I would really appreciate any help!

Dave
