Hey!
I'm just playing with a simple back button.
When I'm on an individual post page, I want to navigate back to all posts through a "link_to". I'm not sure if it's the best way, but it's the way I want to try!
So I've followed the link_to(post) syntax and tried
<%= link_to "Back", post_path(posts) %>
because running rake routes shows
Prefix Verb URI Pattern Controller#Action
posts GET /posts(.:format) posts#index
post GET /posts/:id(.:format) posts#show
So I just swapped out (post) with (posts)... I hope this makes sense - essentially I want to write a link_to to the posts page.
The error I get is undefined local variable or method `posts'
Thanks!
Thomas
