"Cancel account" bug

Hi, after deploying Treebook, I found that if I sign up for an account, post a status and then hit cancel account, I get the following error (the bug works the same way on localhost):

http://screencast.com/t/6vR65Sx9

I actually commented out the Gravatar code thinking that was the problem, but now get a similar error, but line 14 of the file instead - undefined method for 'full_name'

Any idea how to solve this? thanks!

I am assuming you have both garvatar_url and full_name defined in your user model similar to this?

def full_name first_name + " " + last_name end

def gravatar_url stripped_email = email.strip downcased_email = stripped_email.downcase hash = Digest::MD5.hexdigest(downcased_email)

"http://gravatar.com/avatar/#{hash}"

end

Yep, I did this all exactly as shown in the videos.
