    <p>I've got three (relevant) models, specified like this:</p> <pre><code>class User &lt; ActiveRecord::Base has_many :posts has_many :comments has_many :comments_received, :through =&gt; :posts, :source =&gt; :comments end class Post &lt; ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :user has_many :comments end class Comment &lt; ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :user belongs_to :post end </code></pre> <p>I'd like to be able to reference all the <code>comments_received</code> for a <code>user</code> with a route - let's say it's for batch approval of comments on all posts. <em>(note that you can also get <code>comments</code> made by the <code>user</code>, but users can't comment on their own posts, so the <code>comments</code> through a <code>post</code> are different and mutually exclusive)</em>. Logically, this should work with:</p> <pre><code>map.resources :users, :has_many =&gt; [:posts, :comments, :comments_received] </code></pre> <p>This should give me routes of</p> <pre><code>user_posts_path user_comments_path user_comments_received_path </code></pre> <p>The first two work, the last one doesn't. I've tried it without the <code>_</code> in <code>comments_received</code> to no avail. I'm looking to get a URL like</p> <pre><code>http://some_domain.com/users/123/comments_received </code></pre> <p>I've also tried nesting it, but maybe I'm doing that wrong. In that case, I'd think the map would be:</p> <pre><code>map.resources :users do |user| user.resources :comments user.resources :posts, :has_many =&gt; :comments end </code></pre> <p>and then the url might be:</p> <pre><code>http://some_domain.com/users/123/posts/comments </code></pre> <p>Maybe this is the right way to do it, but I have the syntax wrong?</p> <p>Am I thinking about this the wrong way? It seems reasonable to me that I should be able to get a page of all the <code>comments</code> added to all of a user's posts. </p> <p>Thanks for your help!</p>

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.
