`default_scope order('created_at DESC')` works, but `Model.order('created_at DESC')` doesn't work with kaminari

Question

I'm using kaminari for pagination in rails.

if I set default_scope order("created_at DESC") in model, it works as expected.

But when I write in controller like this, the DESC is ignored and pages are ordered by ascendent. (In this case I don't write default_scope in model.)

  def index
    @words = Word.order("created_at DESC").page params[:page]
  end

What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

In this case it applies both orders if want to ignore previous scope then use this:

@words = Word.unscoped.order("created_at DESC").page params[:page]
