Hey there,

I'm in the muck of a major rails project, and need a bit of advice. Google
isn't much help in this case, so I came here.

I'm trying to set up a URL structure as follows:

url.com/username/blog/post_id

where the user has_many posts and the post belongs_to user. I'm using the
friendly_id plugin to enable easy lookup with the user's username, and I
would like to have the blog paths automatically retrieved, instead of
getting a path error (as such):

ActionView::TemplateError (post_url failed to generate from
{:controller=>"posts", :user_id=>#<Post id: 1, user_id: 5, title: "Rock and
Roll", body: "This is my blog post body.", created_at: "2009-12-03
15:40:06", updated_at: "2009-12-03 15:40:06">, :action=>"show"}, expected:
{:controller=>"posts", :action=>"show"}, diff: {:user_id=>#<Post id: 1,
user_id: 5, title: "Rock and Roll", body: "This is my blog post body.",
created_at: "2009-12-03 15:40:06", updated_at: "2009-12-03 15:40:06">}) on
line #3 of app/views/posts/edit.html.erb:

One strategy that I've tried is to lookup the user, and then filter the
posts by that user, but no luck thus far on making the paths work. Before I
write my own link helpers, do you have any ideas?

Thanks!
