How to use link_to to go to a subdomain

I am having trouble using link_to to go to my posts/index page. I have the following link_to:

<%= link_to('NEWS', posts_path(subdomain:"news"),:class=>'navtext',:style=>"color:#bfbebc!important;")  %>

My routes:

  resources :posts , constraints: { subdomain: 'news' }

When I am at http://news.lvh.me:3000/posts (the actual page the link_to refers to) the link works, however when I place in on any other page (for example, the root_path) it does not work. I get the No route matches [GET] "/posts" error which I think means that the subdomain is not passed in my link_to. Any ideas on how I can do this? Thanks.

Solution

  • Try posts_url, instead of posts_path.

    It works fine on my project even without (subdomain:"news"). Just use posts_url directly.
