I've added the necessary text on show.html.erb to show the Body but for some reason its not showing up. Below is my code.
<p id="notice"><%= notice %></p>
<p>
<strong>Title:</strong>
<%= @post.title %>
</p>
<p>
<strong>Body:</strong>
<%= @post.body %>
</p>
<%= link_to 'Edit', edit_post_path(@post) %> |
<%= link_to 'Back', posts_path %>

Treehouse TeacherThe code you're showing is in app/views/posts/show.html.erb
, right? Sometimes when an object attribute doesn't show up in a view, it's because the attribute is actually set to nil
or an empty string. Try adding the below line to your .erb
file:
<%= debug @post %>
