here is my github address: https://github.com/krischery2150/treebookAPP

No, that's a separate issue. The ProfilesController isn't being picked up because the file isn't named correctly. In Rails (and most ruby programs), the autoloader determines the class by the folder and/or filename.

You need to rename profile_controller.rb to profiles_controller.rb.

You have a typo in config/routes.rb.

get 'feed', to: "statutes#index", as: :feed

should be

get 'feed', to: "statuses#index", as: :feed
