<%= f.input :body, 'Send Update:' %>
This returns a Symbol to Integer error.
I need the box to be titled 'Send Update:' and not 'Body'

What you mean by titled? Its name should be send_update?Oscar Valdez Esquea– Oscar Valdez Esquea2014-10-09 20:31:42 +00:00Commented Oct 9, 2014 at 20:31

In my :updates table, the column is called body. But when users go to the form, i want that text box labeled "Send Update" or something different.R.J. Robinson– R.J. Robinson2014-10-09 20:32:39 +00:00Commented Oct 9, 2014 at 20:32

From documentation:
<%= simple_form_for @user do |f| %>
<%= f.input :username, label: 'Your username please' %>
<%= f.input :remember_me, inline_label: 'Yes, remember me' %>
<%= f.input :email, label_html: { class: 'my_class' } %>
<%= f.input :password_confirmation, label: false %>
<%= f.button :submit %>
<% end %>

Perhaps what you are looking for its for a label/text to precede your input? You could write it on plain text, assuming your view is an html.erb file: (using table for display convenience)
<table>
<tr>
<td>Send Update: </td>
<td><%= f.input :body %></td>
</tr>
</table>
Or use the f.label:
<table>
<tr>
<td><%= f.label :body, "Send Update:" %></td>
<td><%= f.input :body %></td>
</tr>
</table>
UPDATE: Doing some research, found out that this could work too:
<%= f.input :body, label: "Send Update:" %>

No. this just creates a table. I am using simple_form_for. not Form_for.

I stated that the use of "table" was for displaying convenience. Its completely optional.

Update did it. Im guessing i forgot a comma or something before. Thanks a lot Oscar!
