4,152 PointsRails: added attributes to devise user model but not able to add new values to them
I'm following through building a simple app with ruby on rails.
I've installed devise. I have added some other attributes into the migration (first name, last name, profile name). I have then migrated the database. I have also created the view.
But when I create a new user now, these three new attributes aren't stored in my user profile (i.e. it looks as though I am adding them on the sign up form, but the actual value is nil).
<User id: 2, first_name: nil, last_name: nil, profile_name: nil etc...
Is this to do with attr_accessible and using rails 4, or is it something else?
