vell's Issues

can't delete contact mes

deleting a contact me throws an error.

Add tag cloud to blog form

Gives an idea of what tags have already been used and to make sure you don't create any "duplicates"

add mailer preview

Mailer previews are missing.

move errors display to a partial

There is no reason for the duplicate code on each page that displays an object error.

will paginate code should be a partial or a helper

Get rid of the code duplication.

double check use of pundit policies

Make sure they are being used through views and controllers. Ensure tests have been created using pundit-matchers

contact me should be sent form request email

right now the from address is my email address and it really should be the create of the contact me.

contact me index should be a table

This listing would serve better as a table.

Add presenter class to views

show template for blog files is empty

Is there an actual route to show this record? If not delete the template.
