>How are you trying to use the views in your apps ? If my memory is correct, setting view_paths means that rails will look in there in addition to app/views and so on. However assuming you're in foo_controller, just as normally render :partial => 'blah' means look for app/views/foo/_blah, adding to the view_paths means rails will also look for my_plugin/views/foo/ _blah. Were you expecting it to find my_plugin/views/foo ? I believe these days that if you plugin contains a folder called app, itself containing a folder called views then that will be added to the view paths automatically Fred > I must be missing something, because the above blog post seems like this > should be fairly simple. > > -- gw > -- > Posted viahttp://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
