    copied!<p>I have a very small application I ma building in rails. It is a simple weight tracker app. I have created a <code>User</code> model which has a sign up page. Once the user logs in they are redirected to the <code>user#show</code> view. Here is the user controller so far:</p> <pre><code>class UsersController &lt; ApplicationController before_filter :authenticate_user! def show @user = current_user end end </code></pre> <p>I have 2 other models one is a <code>Weight</code> model and the other a <code>Goal</code> model, I would like it so what when a user signs up they are presented with a screen asking them to type in the current weight and goal weight this information will then be store in the <code>Weight</code> and <code>Goal</code> models respectively along with the logged in users ID.</p> <p>So far I have been able to add a form to the user <code>show.html.erb</code> template :</p> <pre><code>&lt;%= form_for @user do |f| %&gt; &lt;%= f.fields_for :weight do |builder| %&gt; &lt;fieldset&gt; &lt;%= f.label :value, "Current weight" %&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;%= f.text_field :value %&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/fieldset&gt; &lt;% end %&gt; &lt;div class="actions"&gt; &lt;%= f.submit %&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;% end %&gt; </code></pre> <p>Which renders the form correctly but when I then click on the submit button it simply goes to an error page saying <code>Unknown action- The action 'update' could not be found for UsersController</code>. Im assuming iM doing something wrong as it should try and send to the create action. </p> <p>Is there anyone out there who could help me back on the right path, Im very much a noob at rails.</p>
