I needed to disable a default scope for another model in my belongs_to
because I am using acts_as_paranoid
.
In Rails 4.1+ they provide a way to do this but it isn’t that reliable. belongs_to :user, -> {unscope(where: :deleted_at)}
. It has problems with SQL strings though.
Here’s how to do it in Rails 3.2+, which is a much better solution if you ask me.
class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :user
def user
User.unscoped { super }
end
end
