I have tried using the 'ransack' search with my application, it works as long as it is in the index view of the controller, it does not work when I try putting the same code in partials. The partial has the header with a search field in it
My index action of expert controller looks like this:
def index
@search = Expert.search(params[:q])
@experts = @search.result
end
The code I have used in the index view of expert is
<form class="navbar-form navbar-left" role="search">
<%= search_form_for @search do |f| %>
<div class="form-group">
<div class="field">
<%=f.text_field:Location_or_Description_or_Industry_or_Current_Organization_or_Current_Position_cont, :class => "form-control" %>
</div>
</div>
<%= f.submit "Search" , :class => "btn btn-default icon-search" %>
<% end %>
</form>
I am trying to use this code in partial so that I can search from any given page in my app. The error I get when I do so is
ArgumentError in Praclycore#index
Showing c:/repos/pracly/app/views/layouts/_header.html.erb where line #24 raised:
No Ransack::Search object was provided to search_form_for!
<li class="home"><%= link_to image_tag("/img/home.png"), root_path, :class=>"home" %></li>
<form class="navbar- form navbar-left" role="search">

I am new to ruby on rails, it would be highly appreciated if someone can tell me how can I use ransack with partials and what additional code I need to supply for this to work .
