I have been reading and researching for about 3 days now. This is my last resort.
land.rb:
has_many :uploads , :dependent => :destroy
accepts_nested_attributes_for :uploads, :allow_destroy => true,:reject_if => :all_blank
upload.rb
belongs_to :land
_land_form_partial.html.erb
<%= form_for land , :html => {:multipart => true} do |f| %>
<%= f.fields_for :uploads do |builder| %>
<div class="land_fields">
<%= builder.label :filename, "Image" %>
<%= builder.text_field :filename %> <br/>
Delete: <%= builder.check_box :_destroy %>
</div>
<% end %>
#... buttons and other fields
<% end %>
lands_controller.rb
def update
if @land.update_attributes(land_params)
flash[:success] = "Land updated"
redirect_to lands_path
else
flash[:alert] = @land.errors.full_messages.first
redirect_to edit_land_path
end
end
def land_params
params.require(:land).permit( uploads_attributes: [ :id, :filename ] )
end
When I add something to the text field and update it, all updates properly. If I click on the check-box it won't remove the field.
Can someone please shed a light on this?
Also I tried awesome_nested_fields still everything works except for removing the actual record.
thank you in advance.
EDIT: Solution: (I like to put the solution in the question in case someone wants to view it on mobile as I hate when I can't see the solution straight away)
Thanks to @nTraum
def land_params
params.require(:land).permit( uploads_attributes: [ :id, :filename, :_destroy ] )
end
And all will be dandy :)
