I'm asking this because I don't get it. I've looked at the readme at
GitHub and installed the plugin. I understand how to implement it into
my model (I already had the parent_id and now I've added lft and rgt),
I think I can limit my model to just the acts_as_nested_set and make
it belong to product, but how to load it up? Can I do
@product_attributes = ProductAttributes.find(:all, :conditions =>
{ :product_id => @product.id } and use this collection somehow (how?)
in my view? Or will I need the root element and descend from there?
The documentation is just way too limited for me to understand. And
how will the view part work? I need to actually have a root element
including a <li> tag for a child which can have an <ul> tag -only- if
it has children of its own. This way I can, later on, make certain
parts of the list sortable.
I hope someone can help me with this.
