Code challenge Friendability

Hey guys I'm stuck on adding controller methods on part 4 where it tells me to set the flash success message if the user_friendship variable was successfully blocked anyways here's the code that I have 

class UserFriendshipsController < ApplicationController
      def block
        @user_friendship = current_user.user_friendships.find(params[:id])
       if @user_friendship.block
         flash[:success] = "You have blocked #{@user_friendship.friend.first_name}"        
       else
         flash[:error] = "That friendship could not be blocked"

      end


    end

any input would be greatly appreciated

The following code worked for me

def block
    @user_friendship = current_user.user_friendships.find(params[:id])
    if @user_friendship.block!
      flash[:success] = "Successful."
    else
      flash[:error] = "That friendship could not be blocked."
    end
    redirect_to user_friendships_path
  end

Sorry for the late reply but I only got to this challenge today!

Hi Jovani,

I think you need to call the block method with an exclamation point (block!). Hope that helps!
