Hi, I implemented a custom form builder called BootstrapFormBuilder. I wanted to use it as the default form builder. I did manage to do that but not without problems. I'd like you to help me understand why my initial approach didn't work.
I put my class in app/helpers/bootstrap_form_builder.rb. Following the Rails Guide I added: Rails.application.config.action_view.default_form_builder = BootstrapFormBuilder to an initializer. Unfortunately form_for was still using the default form builder. I had to change the line above to: ActionView::Base.default_form_builder = BootstrapFormBuilder That approach worked. I have two questions: 1. why didn't my initial approach work? 2. if it doesn't change the default form builder then what does it do?
