I can't get past this. I know I've read there isn't a page method for arrays but what do I do?

If I run Class.all in the console, it returns #, but if I run Class.all.page(1), I get the above error.

Any ideas?

No Array doesn't have a page method.

Looks like you are using kaminari. Class.all returns an array, thus you cannot call page on it. Instead, use Class.page(1) directly.

For normal arrays, kaminari has a great helper method:

Kaminari.paginate_array([1, 2, 3]).page(2).per(1)
