Hi. I have a problem with counters in Rails. The situation looks like this: -3 simple models class Forum < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :posts end class Topic < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :posts end class Post < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :topic, :counter_cache => true belongs_to :forum, :counter_cache => true end - In migrations i have declared t.column :posts_count, :integer, :default => 0 for Forum and Topic - Now a simple action def some_action @post = Post.new(params[:id]) @forum.posts << @post # The @forums.posts_count is up by 1 @topic.posts << @post # The @topic.posts_count is _not_ up by 1 end Both, the forum_id and topic_id are set correctly in @post, it saves into the database and everything else is dandy. But why oh why doesn't the @topic.posts_count increment ? (oh, obviously if I change the order of the two crucial lines the effect will be the same - the instance in the second line won't get the posts_count incremented) Could anyone come up with a solution ? (apart from making the counters 'by hand') -- AdamS
