For example, if you don't want to show "login invalid" or "password invalid" but you would like to show "Account not activated" ...?

Not really an issue as I solved it, but something to note for other users of dynamic_form.

I was implementing dynamic_form with a Plain Old Ruby Object that includes ActiveModel::Validations, and was getting the error in the subject line when trying to use <%= f.error_messages %>.

I didn't find any other instances of this issue, but it can be solved by defining to_model in the PORO:

class Download
  include ActiveModel::Validations
  attr_accessor :name
  validates_presence_of :name

  def to_model
    self
  end
end

Thanks for the gem, works great.

displays as string, rather than rendered html:

I don't know at what point the form helper stopped working so I'm just going to say it doesn't work on 3.0.7 as that's the version I'm running on.

I have a nested model (although I tried this with a non-nested model and got the same problem) called Employer::Question. I created a haml form for the new view and called:

= form('question')

Reloading the page threw the error that Rails couldn't find the route :action => "employer/questions", :controller => "employer/questions".

I dug into the code some and it looks like the form method is expecting url_for to return the action name ("create" for example). But it's actually returning the path for the action ("employer/questions" in my case).

Changing the call to form_for to:

contents = form_tag(action, :method =>(options[:method] || 'post'), :enctype => options[:multipart] ? 'multipart/form-data': nil)

seems to fix the problem but all the tests break because the overridden url_for still returns the action. I don't know how to fix the tests so I haven't sent a pull request. I'm sorry for that.

I'm using error_messages_for on my forms but it's escaping the html like so: http://cl.ly/DlDN

This is the code I'm using:

<%= error_messages_for(:form, :user, :message => "<strong>Opps, it doesn't look like you filled everything out properly.</strong><br>
            The fields marked in RED below must be filled out properly before you can continue.") %>

Anything I'm missing to get this to work properly? As you can see the input fields with the fieldWithErrors is also escaping html for some reason.

Thanks!

Hi,

Is there a way to simply skip activerecord.errors.template.header, activerecord.errors.template.header.body and display only error messages with f.error_messages ?

I have been trying to shorten my Rails app startup times, so I benchmarked the gem requirement times using the trick described at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9505612/slow-loading-time-for-rails-3-2-debug-shows-rails-loading-twice.

I found dynamic_form to be the slowest-loading gem next to Devise (which notoriously slow-loading).

Any idea why the loading of dynamic_form is so slow and how to speed it up?

never mind
