Reversed statuses

Hi Everyone,

In the RoR project we use the code bellow to call each status. However each new status is displayed at the bottom of the page and the oldest at the top. I was wondering if there was a way of reversing the statuses!

<% @statuses.each do |status| %>

Thanks!

In your controller, for the instance variable @statuses, you need to add an order. I suggest

 @statuses = Status.all.order('created_at DESC')

That will order them newest first.
