I think you didn't understand what I mean... Every Controller is something like a module in this cms. so you can put such a module on different places on the website. so you have a navigation, which points to a module (contoller) and a certain place, where this module is placed within the navigation. In this case the URL should also contain the site-id (navigation-id) in order to find out which content of the module is part of this navigation item. So you can't pass this via session. For example: we habe a news-module which is placed on the home page (site_id = 1) and under "about > blog" (site_id = 99). so the url would look like this: www.example.com/1/news for the home page and www.example.com/99/news for the "about > blog" page. and this you can't pass by session. sigma > > > sigma > > > On 7 Jul., 22:44, Marnen Laibow-Koser <li...@ruby-forum.com> wrote: > >> [Please quote when replying.] > > >> Christoph Thommen wrote: > >> > Hi > > >> > thanks, but this is not really what i'm looking for. > >> > I looking for a solution to (re-)pass a given parameter to all rails > >> > generated links. > > >> And why won't a session variable do the trick?
