    text
    copied!<p>I am new to rails development and I am trying to get the auto_html gem to work, but nothing ever gets saved to the body_html field of the DB. I am not getting any errors either, so it seems like the gem just isn't getting called.</p> <p>I have included the gem in my gemfile and ran bundle install. Am I not doing something correctly? My thought was that I didn't need to call any auto_html method anywhere because I have the auto_html_for in the model. </p> <p>I am on Rails 3.2.1 and ruby 1.9.3p125 and auto_html 1.5.1</p> <p>Model:</p> <pre><code>class Video &lt; ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :campaign auto_html_for :body do html_escape image youtube(:width =&gt; 400, :height =&gt; 250) link :target =&gt; "_blank", :rel =&gt; "nofollow" simple_format end end </code></pre> <p>Controller:</p> <pre><code>class VideosController &lt; ApplicationController def new @video = Video.new respond_to do |format| format.html # new.html.erb format.json { render json: @video } end end def create @video = Video.new(params[:video]) respond_to do |format| if @video.save format.html { redirect_to videos_path(:campaign =&gt; "#{@video.campaign_id}"), notice: 'Video was successfully created.' } format.json { render json: @video, status: :created, location: @video } else format.html { render action: "new" } format.json { render json: @video.errors, status: :unprocessable_entity } end end end </code></pre> <p>View:</p> <pre><code>= simple_form_for @video do |f| .field = f.hidden_field :campaign_id, :value =&gt; "#{params[:campaign]}" = f.text_area :body .actions = f.submit 'Save' </code></pre> <p><strong>EDIT:</strong> videos table definition from schema.rb</p> <pre><code>create_table "videos", :force =&gt; true do |t| t.text "body" t.text "body_html" t.integer "campaign_id" t.datetime "created_at", :null =&gt; false t.datetime "updated_at", :null =&gt; false end </code></pre>
