NoMethodError

I am getting a NoMethodError when trying to create a new status.

http://gyazo.com/e50d3ae178fd12ede6467d8d78cb44ad

Here is my file code in Devise.

<h2>Sign up</h2>

<%= form_for(resource, as: resource_name, url: registration_path(resource_name)) do |f| %> <%= devise_error_messages! %>

<div class="field"> <%= f.label :first_name %> <br> <%= f.text_field :first_name %> </div>

<div class="field"> <%= f.label :last_name %> <br> <%= f.text_field :last_name %> </div>

<div class="field"> <%= f.label :profile_name %> <br> <%= f.text_field :profile_name %> </div>

<div class="field"> <%= f.label :email %><br /> <%= f.email_field :email, autofocus: true %> </div>

<div class="field"> <%= f.label :password %> <% if @validatable %> <em>(<%= @minimum_password_length %> characters minimum)</em> <% end %><br /> <%= f.password_field :password, autocomplete: "off" %> </div>

<div class="field"> <%= f.label :password_confirmation %><br /> <%= f.password_field :password_confirmation, autocomplete: "off" %> </div>

<div class="actions"> <%= f.submit "Sign up" %> </div> <% end %>

<%= render "devise/shared/links" %>

The error is in your status form. The name column gets removed from the database and replaced with a user_id column. That code will eventually be deleted in later videos.

I had the same problem but just keep watching the "Getting the Latest Changes" video because they take care of this error and few others related to :name. Thanks Brandon!
