Hi @Jon-Jos, I have search the code in the repositiory. In app/views/spectrums/index.html.erb file, we have something like:

    <h3>Recent authors</h3>
    <ul class="nav">
    <% User.where(login: @spectrums.collect(&:author).uniq).each do |user| %>
      <li><a href="<%= profile_path(user.login) %>"><i class="fa fa-user"></i> <%= user.login %></a></li>
    <% end %>
    </ul>

I think this error occurs becuase user is not logged in. This is the main page and you are not logged in. Hope it makes sense. Thanks!
