    <p>I am using <code>ssl_requirement</code> and since setting it up, my application's Flash messages are disappearing.</p> <p>I've modified the plugin slightly as accounts can optionally have a domain mapped to their account. In that case the non-ssl areas of the site should use the mapped domain, whereas the ssl areas should use the subdomain:</p> <pre><code>def ensure_proper_protocol return true if ssl_allowed? if ssl_required? &amp;&amp; !request.ssl? redirect_to "https://#{@account.subdomain}." + APP_CONF[:domain] + request.request_uri flash.keep return false elsif request.ssl? &amp;&amp; !ssl_required? redirect_to "http://#{@account.sub_or_mapped_domain}" + request.request_uri flash.keep return false end end </code></pre> <p>The application is broadly split into a website (front end) and an admin (back end). <strong>ALL</strong> of the admin area uses SSL so in the AdminController I have overwritten <code>ssl_required?</code> with:</p> <pre><code>protected def ssl_required? return false if RAILS_ENV == "test" || RAILS_ENV == "development" true end </code></pre> <p>Interestingly, Flash messages work fine in the development environment, where I am bypassing requiring SSL, but in my production environment where SSL is required, all Flash are gone.</p> <p>Any ideas?</p> <h2>EDIT</h2> <p>I've done some further testing and can add that this problem is ONLY occurring in Chrome on the Mac. Other Mac browsers and Chrome on windows are displaying the Flash messages as expected.</p> <p>This may be a bug with Chrome on the Mac then...?</p>

    1. COWeird bug. It must be that Chrome doesn't let the session persist when switching to https for security reasons.

    2. COYeah... but I stay logged in OK (authentication via Authlogic), it's just the flash messages that are going missing.

    3. COVery strange. Perhaps something to do with HTTP redirect handling in Chrome on the Mac?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
