Designing a url badge

I had the same problem and I think the phrasing of the directions may be the culprit. You may want to rephrase the directions to say:

"Add a new route that will route a GET request to "/feed" to the statuses controller's index action"

I kept on trying to use StatusesController as the controller and it wouldn't let me pass. I finally got it to work :)

Hey Eddie Imbat I'm not sure I understand the question, can you possibly rephrase it a little bit?

This is the challenge prompt, and I'm not sure what to do:

Add a new route that will route a GET request to "/feed" to the StatusesController's index action

I'm having the same problem too with the code challenge.

Hey guys, double check this video and try again:

http://teamtreehouse.com/library/programming/build-a-simple-ruby-on-rails-application/designing-urls/creating-custom-routes

That goes in to how to complete the challenge. Let me know if you still have trouble.

Referring the video is totally bogus because:

1.) If you look at the wrong time index on the video you end up trying to use:

statsus#index

instead of :

statuses#index

2.) In the video it uses 'feed', not '/feed'

I kept trying different variations (with nothing to give me a clue for debugging except that stupid Bummer message with no error code or output error code) for over an hour before I (semi-randomly in desperation) hit on:

get '/feed', to: "statuses#index", as: :feed

I also forgot the colon (to instead of to:)

This challenge was brutal (and a waste of time of a very minor bit of tech trivia/phrasing).
