copied!<p>Couple things going on here I see so far: </p> <p>type is a reserved word in Rails. It is used for single table inheritance. If you change your column name to something like "post_type" it should help immensely in trying to solve random issues. I went through this a while back and was beating my brains out before I knew about STI. </p> <p>Also, you have a type_id in your post . . . but I didn't see that your post <code>:belongs_to :type</code> . . . don't forget that a model with the foreign key needs this declaration to use all the ActiveRecord associations. </p> <p>Hope this helps!</p> <p>Another Edit: I noticed that in your insert statement, it appears you have a "type" column? This will also cause issues when using relationships. Are you using a separate 'type' model? Can you possibly post your schema if any of the above statements don't help? </p> <p>In ActiveRecord, a type column is reserved and will not display properly(back to my statement about Single Table Inheritance). At this point I strongly recommend getting rid of your type and type_id columns, and giving your Post a "<code>post_type_id</code>" column. </p> <p>Then once you create a separate <code>post_type</code> model that <code>has_many :posts</code> you will want to make sure your <code>Post :belongs_to :post_type</code> (because it has the foreign key). Once you do that, you will be able to call <code>post_object.post_type</code> and it will return the model relationship you are looking for. </p>
