1,179 Pointsuser.rb has undefined method
I deleted it previously because it was giving me errors. Here's the line of code in user.rb that is included in the video.
attr_accessible :email, :password, :password_confirmation, :remember_me, :first_name, :last_name, :profile_name
This is the error message that I get.
undefined method `attr_accessible' for #<Class:0x462ad40>

My application controller finally looked like this after quite a number of hours of debugging this is issue and not much help from the Treehouse forums. Replace (:profile_name, :email, :first_name, :last_name, :password) with whatever you have in yours.
app/controllers/application_controller.rb
class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
before_filter :update_sanitized_params, if: :devise_controller?
protect_from_forgery with: :exception
end
def update_sanitized_params
devise_parameter_sanitizer.for(:sign_up) { |u| u.permit(:profile_name,
:email, :first_name, :last_name, :password) }
end
