Check whether a Paperclip attachment exists

Don’t simply test for the presence of the magic Paperclip attribute, it will return a paperclip Attachment object and thus always be true:

- if user.photo.present? # always true
  = image_tag(user.photo.url)

GeoEntity.last

SELECT geo_entities.* FROM geo_entities ORDER BY geo_entities.id DESC LIMIT 1

returns:

County id: 4, eid: nil, pid: nil, ename: nil, etype: 2, created_at: "2011-11-21 06:26:37", updated_at: "2011-11-21 06:26:37"

Friendly URLs

By default, Rails applications build URLs based on the primary key -- the id column from the database. Imagine we have a Person model and associated controller. We have a person record for Bob Martin that has id number 6. The URL for his show page would be:

/people/6

But, for aesthetic or SEO purposes, we want Bob's name in the URL. The last segment, the 6 here, is called the "slug". Let's look at a few ways to implement better slugs.
