Generating the Devise Views

Hello!

Generating the Devise Views:

When I'm in the App/Models/user.erb my code stops working when I add the following code:

# Setup accessible (or protected) attributes for your model attr_accessible :email, :password, :password_confirmation, :remember_me, :first_name, :last_name, :profile_name # attr_accessible :title, :body end

I get the following error message:

attr_accessible is extracted out of Rails into a gem. Please use new recommended protection model for params(strong_parameters) or add protected_attributes to your Gemfile to use old one.

So I added the 'protected_attributes' gem to my Gemfile. This installed fine. However I'm still getting the same error message. Does anyone know how I could resolve this?

Thanks,

K

Use Rails 3.2 like the videos or learn about strong parameters in Rails 4.
