Page links giving me errors on ruby on rails

So I've just started to learn ruby on rails but ran into some issues while linking pages together. The error occurred after I was trying to get localhost:3000 to be my home page instead localhost:3000/home/index

Instead of my site I got the error:

undefined local variable or method `portal_pages_updates_path' for #<#:0x2d37ff8>

and highlighting my footer links as the issue.

  </small>
 <nav>
   <ul>
     <li><%= link_to "Updates",portal_pages_updates_path  %></li>
     <li><%= link_to "Contact", portal_pages_contact_path %></li>
   </ul>
 </nav>

This is my Routes.rb that I modified which game me the error

GameProject::Application.routes.draw do

root :to =>'home#index'
match '/contact', to:  'portal_pages#contact', via: 'get'
match '/updates', to:  'portal_pages#updates', via: 'get'

In order to use named routes for custom action, you have to specify it in your routes.rb

match '/contact', to:  'portal_pages#contact', via: 'get', as: "portal_pages_contact"
match '/updates', to:  'portal_pages#updates', via: 'get', as: "portal_pages_updates"
