23,440 PointsActive Record Relationship challenge
Hi
This is the challenge Question:
Let's say we have a BlogPost model and a Comment model that represents comments someone might leave on a blog post. The comments table includes a blog_post_id column. Please setup the relationships correctly.
This is my answer:
class BlogPost < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :comments
end
class Comment < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :blog_post_id
end
This is the error I"m getting:
Bummer! Remember, belongs_to always wants the singular version of the relationship.
Any clue as to what is going wrong?
TIA
Mike

23,440 PointsSorry Dino still not correct. Could you post your complete answer?

Courses Plus Student 44,108 PointsThe rest of your code is correct, it's just that you need to remove the _id part:
class BlogPost < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :comments
end
class Comment < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :blog_post
end
