Ruby ActiveRecord Basics Migrations and Relationships Relationships

Looking at my code, how can the "`belongs_to` always wants the singular version of the relationship" be fixed?

Tried with :blogPost and :blogpost, as well as blog_post_id and :BlogPost

models.rb 
class BlogPost < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :comments
end

class Comment < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :BlogPost
end

Hey Justin,

Since the BlogPost model name has Post capitalized, that would need to be set as blog_post, so..

class Comment
  belongs_to :blog_post
end

..should do the trick.
