For example, I have a table of questions, and a table of answers. I have a join table called answers_questions. The answers_questions table tells me which answers are possible to which questions. However, I kept the primary key ‘id’ column here, because it’s more efficient for me when creating user records to have a single integer reference that tells me what question and what answer they gave.

So my join table has the id column, and now I want to create another table to join user id’s with the id’s of their question-answer pairs. What do I name this join table? First glance would seem to be “answers_questions_users”. Does rails support that?

And if not, what is the conventional Rails declaration to use such a setup?

Thanks!

Just remember that when you override table names, when you use AR, it still expects you to use your model name and plural of your model name.
