link_to with :as routing

The following will not work when your post model is routed with the :as option:

link_to("View post", @post)

Instead, use the helper with your custom name:

link_to("View post", :url => renamedpost_path(@post))

form_for with :as routing

The following will not work if your post model is routed with the :as option:

form_for(@post)

Instead, use the helper with your custom name:

form_for(@post, :url => edit_renamedpost_path(@post))

Model objects routed with :as

When providing a model object, url_for will not work if the model’s routes are named using the :as option. You can instead use the named helper methods (posts_path, post_path(:id), etc.).
