Routing Error No route matches [POST] "/comments/new" - using scope

Error appears when I try to submit the comment.

routes.rb file:

scope module: 'admin' do 
  resources :comments
end

_form

<%= form_for new_comment_path do |f| %>

  <%= f.label :name %><br>
  <%= f.text_field :name %>
  ...

 <%= submit_tag 'Submit', :class => 'btn btn-primary' %>

<% end %>

comments_controller.rb

def new
  @comment = Admin::Comment.new
end

def create
  @comment = Admin::Comment.new(comment_params)

  ...

end

Use

<%= form_for(@comment, url: comments_path) do |f| %>

As you need to post the form, you need a POST route. This will automatically POST your form to create action(comments_path). Logically new form should be posted to create action of your controller.

new_comment_path refers to GET route of new page which you are trying to use on form. It is not a POST route so you get the error.

new_comment GET    /comments/new(.:format)   admin/comments#new
            POST   /comments(.:format)    admin/comments#create  ## You need this route

Alternatively:

Define your routes as below:

namespace :admin do 
  resources :comments
end

and you can use form_for as

<%= form_for(@comment) do |f| %>

I think you'll have to use:

<%= form_for [:admin, @comment] do |f| %>

Here's a good reference: form_for and scopes, rails 3
