Building Social Features in RoR : can't solve a code challenge

Hi guys,

The step I can't pass is located right there

Here is the code I've typed so far:

class UserFriendshipsController < ApplicationController def new if params[:friend_id] @friend = User.find(params[:friend_id]) @user_friendship = current_user.user_friendships.new(friend: @friend) else flash[:error] = "Friend required" end end end

Since it's the exact same code that the one in my local application, I don't really get what's wrong...

Thanks in advance for your help!

The question is asking a bit more specific answer than what you are providing.

class UserFriendshipsController < ApplicationController
    def new
        if params[:friend_id]
            @friend = User.find(params[:friend_id])
            @user_friendship =UserFriendship.new(user: current_user, friend: @friend)
        else
            flash[:error] = "Friend required"
        end
    end
end

@Mike

Thanks for the reply... I must have been by far too tired, since I haven't seen "the user set to the current_user".

Cheers!
