# The warning about not setting whodunnit
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
After upgrading to PaperTrail 5, you see this warning:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> user_for_paper_trail is present, but whodunnit has not been set. PaperTrail no
|
||
|
|
> longer adds the set_paper_trail_whodunnit before_filter for you. Please add this
|
||
|
|
> before_filter to your ApplicationController to continue recording whodunnit.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## You want to track whodunnit
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Add the set_paper_trail_whodunnit before_filter to your ApplicationController.
|
||
|
|
See the PaperTrail readme for an example (https://git.io/vrTYG).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## You don't want to track whodunnit
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you no longer want to track whodunnit, you may disable this
|
||
|
|
warning by overriding user_for_paper_trail to return nil.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
# in application_controller.rb
|
||
|
|
def user_for_paper_trail
|
||
|
|
nil # disable whodunnit tracking
|
||
|
|
end
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## You just want the warning to go away
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To disable this warning for any other reason, use `skip_after_action`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
skip_after_action :warn_about_not_setting_whodunnit
|
||
|
|
```
