1,172 PointsNoMethodError in Statuses#index
I have started getting an error saying NoMethodError in Statuses#index. It says undefined method `full_name' for nil:NilClass. I would appreciate any help.
my code for index.html.erb is
<div class="page-header">
<h1>All Statuses</h1>
</div>
<%= link_to "Post A New Status", new_status_path, class: "btn btn-success" %>
<% @statuses.each do |status| %>
<div class="status">
<strong><%= status.user.full_name %></strong>
<p><%= status.content %></p>
<div class="meta">
<%= link_to time_ago_in_words(status.created_at) + " ago", status %>
<span class="admin">
| <%= link_to "Edit", edit_status_path(status) %> |
<%= link_to "Delete", status, method: :delete, data: { confirm: "Are you sure your want to delete this status?"} %>
</span>
</div>
</div>
<% end %>
my user.rb code
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
# Include default devise modules. Others available are:
# :token_authenticatable, :confirmable,
# :lockable, :timeoutable and :omniauthable
