Re: [Rails] How can I conditional the validation on a model validation?

If you're asking how do I avoid the validation check on name and id when updating, then you should look at :on = params for validation. validates_presence_of :id, :name, :on = :create I think everything is clearly explained in the docs.

Hi, I'm not sure 100% what you're trying to do but the presence of question_id will not be there until the record has been saved. No? And I'm not sure why you're doing this @grading = @question.gradings.build(more_attributes) Shouldn't you have done a build before presenting your form if

Re: [Rails] validates_presence_of :parent_id stopping save

I'd say the best way to deal with this is never validate for a association_id #validates_presence_of :question_id validates_presence_of :question would be better. if grading.question_id is nil then grading.question will also be nil. So you're effectively doing the same check. I hope this helps

No this was regular (not j-) ruby, 1.8.7. I think my problem was related to rubygems, at the time I still had 1.3.5. Later I installed rvm and, again using ruby 1.8.7, I had more luck doing a fresh start by first updating rubygems to 1.3.6 and then running only gem install rails --pre, which
