I'd recommend trying out the restful ACL plugin. http://www.railslodge.com/plugins/966-restful-acl
This is an effective way to set permissions for your project and is good to use in general. In this case, you could simply put in your Post model: def is_readable_by(user, parent = nil) self.user.eql?(user) end This example is assuming you have belongs_to :user in your Post model. It takes a little while to learn but once you do it should be easy. I put this in all my models. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
