Rails 7: Issues with Scopes and Pagination in Ransack Queries
I'm using Rails 7 with Ransack for advanced searching and pagination with the `kaminari` gem, but I'm encountering unexpected behavior when combining scopes and pagination. My model has a scope for filtering active users: ```ruby class User < ApplicationRecord scope :active, -> { where(active: true) } end ``` I set up a search form like this: ```erb <%= search_form_for @q, url: users_path, method: :get do |f| %> <%= f.label :name_cont, 'Search by Name' %> <%= f.text_field :name_cont %> <%= f.submit 'Search' %> <% end %> ``` In my controller, I try to filter the users based on the search parameters and apply pagination: ```ruby def index @q = User.ransack(params[:q]) @users = @q.result.active.page(params[:page]).per(10) end ``` When I perform a search, the pagination links generated show the correct number of pages but the results are not aligning with the filters applied. For example, when I search for a name that matches an inactive user, I still see the inactive user listed in the results. I've verified that the scope is working independently by calling `User.active` in the Rails console, and it correctly returns only active users. However, the combined Ransack query seems to ignore the `active` scope. The generated SQL query looks like this: ``` SELECT "users".* FROM "users" WHERE (name LIKE '%search_term%') ``` It appears that the `active` scope is not being applied. Is there a way to ensure that the active users' filter is consistently applied to the Ransack query? I've tried moving the `.active` call to different parts of the query without success, and I've also explored using `merge` without any improvement. Any insights would be greatly appreciated!
