In regards to the previous topic. I tried making the following change with no luck.

Code:

<%= render :partial => 'category', :locals => { :category => post.category } %>

Not sure what I'm doing wrong here. Confused

In regards to not having your categories selected when editing a post.

Change your unless code block to the following in posts/edit.rhtml

Code:

<% unless @categories.empty? %>
   <% @selected = @post.categories.collect { |c| c.category_id.to_i } %>
   <select name="post[category_ids][]" multiple="multiple">
   <%= options_from_collection_for_select(@categories, :id, :title, @selected) %><br/><br/>
   </select>
<% end %>

Now go back to list, refresh, click edit and it should now highlight all categories you have selected for that post.
