Nested Form for Join Table

I'm attempting to add a nested form into the Devise registration form. My 3 tables are Users (devise), Languages, and they both are joined in Languages_Users

It signs up the new user, but does not save Languages_Users, but I see that it is passed in the params. A new issue has also arisen - the avatar file is no longer saved. I'm not sure if these are related (if not, don't worry about addressing it).

**UPDATE - Here are my current logs - I now think the issue due to languages_users not receiving user_id

"languages users can't be blank'. In my logs though, it says 'SELECT 1 AS one FROM "languages_users" WHERE ("languages_users"."user_id" IS NULL AND "languages_users"."language_id" = 2) LIMIT 1' Is this an issue with not passing the user_id?

**

User.rb

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :languages_users
  has_many :languages, :through => :languages_users
  accepts_nested_attributes_for :languages_users

  devise :database_authenticatable, :registerable,
         :recoverable, :rememberable, :trackable, :validatable

  belongs_to :role

  has_attached_file :avatar, :styles => { :medium => "300x300>", :thumb => "100x100#" }, :default_url => "/images/:style/missing.png"

  validates_attachment_content_type :avatar, :content_type => /\Aimage\/.*\Z/
  validates_presence_of :first_name, :last_name, :location, :nationality, :bio
 end

registrations_controller.rb

class Users::RegistrationsController < Devise::RegistrationsController
before_filter :configure_permitted_parameters
 def new
 build_resource({})
  resource.languages_users.build  
 respond_with self.resource 
end

def create
  super
end
 private
 def configure_permitted_parameters
    devise_parameter_sanitizer.for(:sign_up) { |u|
      u.permit(:email, :password, :password_confirmation, :bio, :location, :last_name, :first_name, :nationality, :avatar, languages_user_attributes: [:id, :language_id, :user_id, :level]) }
end
end

in registrations: new.html.erb

<h2>Sign up</h2>

<%= form_for(resource, as: resource, url: registration_path(resource)) do |f| %>
  <%= devise_error_messages! %>
  <div class="field">

    <%= f.text_field :first_name, autofocus: true %>

      <div class="fields"> 
      <%= lu.collection_select(:language_id, Language.order('language ASC').all, :id, :language) %><br>
      <%= lu.hidden_field :level, value: 1 %>
    <% end %>
  </div>  
  <br>
  <div class="field">
    <%= f.label :password %>
    <% if @minimum_password_length %>
    <em>(<%= @minimum_password_length %> characters minimum)</em>
    <% end %><br />
    <%= f.password_field :password, autocomplete: "off" %>

    <%= f.password_field :password_confirmation, autocomplete: "off" %>
  </div>
  <div class="actions">
    <%= f.submit "Sign up" %>
  </div>
<% end %>

Still a newb, so please let me know if you'd like me to provide anything further.

Thanks!

You should change languages_user to languages_users

def configure_permitted_parameters
  devise_parameter_sanitizer.for(:sign_up) { |u|
  u.permit(:email, :password, :password_confirmation, :bio, :location, :last_name, :first_name, :nationality, :avatar, languages_users_attributes: [:id, :language_id, :user_id, :level]) }
end

Also in fields_for

<%= f.fields_for :languages_users do |lu| %>
