mail_to address in seed database (Rails 5)

Question

I have an item in a set of show profiles pages that gives an email from a seeded database:

  <h4><%= @admin.email %></h4>

Which needs to be converted into a mail_to tag, similar to this : <p><%= mail_to 'info@db.com', "info@db.com" %> What I came up with looks like this:

<% @admin.each do |agent| %>
  <h4<%= mail_to <%= agent.email %>, "<%= agent.email %>" %></h4>
<%end%>

But it's crashing, with the error syntax error, unexpected keyword_end, expecting ')' '.freeze; end ^

Any ideas?

Shouldn't be just the values? `<%= mail_to agent.email, agent.email %>` — Sebastián Palma, Apr 09 '18 at 03:02

Remove unnecessary <%%> symbols:

<% @admin.each do |agent| %>
  <h4><%= mail_to agent.email, agent.email %></h4>
<% end %>

I get `undefined method `each'` from that. – Boucherie Apr 09 '18 at 03:07
If `@admin` is single object, not a relation or array, just use `
<%= mail_to @admin.email, @admin.email %>

Got it! Thank you! – Boucherie Apr 09 '18 at 04:44
