Paperclip outputs url instead of image

Question

In my show view:<dd><%= @truck_fleet.avatar.url(:medium) %></dd>

Get the output: /system/truck_fleets/avatars/000/000/001/medium/logo.thumbnail.png?1354107497

Def, I would like to display avatar instead for URL :)

Anyone has encountered this issue before?

Just tell rails it is an image:

<%= image_tag @truck_fleet.avatar.url(:medium) %>

All you need to do is wrap the URL in an <img> tag under the src attribute like this:

<img src="<%= @truck_fleet.avatar.url(:medium) %>"/>
