friendly_id 5.1.0 using history with finders

I'm using the friendly_id gem for the first time in a Rails 4.1.6 project, and trying to use finders, history, and sluggable together, but history doesn't seem to be working.

I set it up following the railscast tutorial and added finders in to my Model's friendly_id definition:

extend FriendlyId
friendly_id :title, use: [:slugged, :finders, :history]
def should_generate_new_friendly_id?
    slug.blank? || title_changed?
end

As well as adding in the method from the friendly_id.rb initialiser to allow for making a new slug every time the title attribute changes

I've added the slug to the database, migrated, ran rails g friendly_id and saved each of the model to create their slug and friendly_id_slug, just not sure why history won't work!

I've figured it out, history needs to be defined before finders in the Model

friendly_id :title, use: [:slugged, :history, :finders]

Everything's working now :)
