undefined method `total_pages' for nil:NilClass

[Michael Hartl]

I get the error undefined method 'total_pages' for nil:NilClass when leaving off an explicit argument to will_paginate. In other words, if @users contains a (paginated) list of users on the Users index page, the code

<%= will_paginate(@users) %>

works fine, but the equivalent code

<%= will_paginate %>

raises the error above.

I'm considering bootstrap-will_paginate for inclusion in the Ruby on Rails Tutorial, 2nd Edition, so it would be awesome if you could fix this issue, for the sake of newbies everywhere.

Ah, I've not used the simplified syntax before. I'll take a look at this today. Thanks for the report!

[Nicholas Fine]

That should do it.
