What am I doing wrong here? I am using cancan on Rails 3. In my Ability class, I've got:
class Ability include CanCan::Ability def initialize(user) user ||= User.new # guest user, for users who are not registered or don't have an account yet if user.role? :admin can :manage, :all elsif user.role? :artist can :read, [Artist, Painting, Video] can :manage, Video do |video| video.try(:user) == user end else can :create, [Artist] can :read, :all end end end In VideosController#index, I have: <% if can? :update, song %> <div class="interaction clearfix"> <%= link_to 'edit', '#' %> <%= link_to 'delete', '#', :class => 'last' %> </div> <% end %> I get: undefined method `user' for :index:Symbol -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
