Rails ActiveAdmin Routing new Resources

I'm just starting out with Rails and I decided to try out ActiveAdmin last night. I was able to register a new resource name 'Pages' in my ActiveAdmin app, but there's one thing I can't figure out how to customize with it.

I create a new Page with ActiveAdmin, but it's published within the admin/.. path. (e.g. mydomain/admin/page/1)

How do I change the routing so the page can be viewed at mydomain/page/1? Are you able to change the routing of existing resources in ActiveAdmin?

I'm very new at Rails so I assume this is a pretty easy fix. I plan to run through some more tutorials/books so I can better understand routing.

You can change the default admin namespace.

To do so you have to go to config/initializers/active_admin.rb file and find the following configuration:

  # Default:
  # config.default_namespace = :admin

Uncomment the line and set the default_namespace to whatever you need.

However, if you need to turn off the namespace at all, you will have to set the default_namespace to false:

config.default_namespace = false

This will allow you to run the AA from the root.

By doing so be aware of changes in routes:

if changed the namespace to hello, the admin_games_path becomes hello_games_path;

if changed to no namespace, use normal routes: admin_games_path becomes games_path.
