Ruby on Rails

I finally figured this out.  I have an action that only renders html, but googlebot for instance wants text.  So, I added this to the controller and everything works!

 before_filter :force_html_requests, :only => :show

  def force_html_requests
      request.format = :html
  end

Excellent suggestion.  From the page view I see this agent:

Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; oBot/2.3.1; +http://filterdb.iss.net/crawler/)

So, how do I setup my app to only accept html requests for those routes?
Or, just not fail when it wants text?

try passing a formats option to render.

render partial: 'foo', formats: [:html]

 

Thanks
