    <p>I have a Person model and an Address Model:</p> <pre><code>class Person &lt; ActiveRecord::Base has_one :address accepts_nested_attributes_for :address end class Address &lt; ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :person end </code></pre> <p>In my people controller I have <code>@person.build_address</code> in my new action. My forms builds correctly. The problem is that when I submit the form, a person record and an address record is created but they aren't linked via the address_id column in the Person table.</p> <p>Am I missing a step in the controller?</p> <p>Thanks!</p> <p>New Action <strong>UPDATE</strong></p> <pre><code>def new @person = Person.new @person.build_address respond_to do |format| format.html # new.html.erb format.xml { render :xml =&gt; @person } end end </code></pre> <p>Form Code <strong>UPDATE</strong></p> <pre><code>&lt;%= form_for(@person) do |f| %&gt; &lt;% if @person.errors.any? %&gt; &lt;div id="error_explanation"&gt; &lt;h2&gt;&lt;%= pluralize(@person.errors.count, "error") %&gt; prohibited this person from being saved:&lt;/h2&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;% @person.errors.full_messages.each do |msg| %&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;%= msg %&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;% end %&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;% end %&gt; &lt;div class="field"&gt; &lt;%= f.label :first_name %&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;%= f.text_field :first_name %&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="field"&gt; &lt;%= f.label :last_name %&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;%= f.text_field :last_name %&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="field"&gt; &lt;%= f.label :email %&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;%= f.text_field :email %&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="field"&gt; &lt;%= f.label :telephone %&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;%= f.text_field :telephone %&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="field"&gt; &lt;%= f.label :mobile_phone %&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;%= f.text_field :mobile_phone %&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="field"&gt; &lt;%= f.label :date_of_birth %&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;%= f.date_select :date_of_birth %&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="field"&gt; &lt;%= f.label :gender %&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;%= f.select(:gender, Person::GENDER_TYPES) %&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="field"&gt; &lt;%= f.label :notes %&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;%= f.text_area :notes %&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="field"&gt; &lt;%= f.label :person_type %&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;%= f.select(:person_type, Person::PERSON_TYPES) %&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;%= f.fields_for :address do |address_fields| %&gt; &lt;div class="field"&gt; &lt;%= address_fields.label :street_1 %&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;%= address_fields.text_field :street_1 %&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="field"&gt; &lt;%= address_fields.label :street_2 %&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;%= address_fields.text_field :street_2 %&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="field"&gt; &lt;%= address_fields.label :city %&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;%= address_fields.text_field :city %&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="field"&gt; &lt;%= address_fields.label :state %&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;%= address_fields.select(:state, Address::STATES) %&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="field"&gt; &lt;%= address_fields.label :zip_code %&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;%= address_fields.text_field :zip_code %&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;% end %&gt; &lt;div class="actions"&gt; &lt;%= f.submit %&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;% end %&gt; </code></pre>

Guidance
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.
