Rails admin - Customization

[Ruby Developer]

Recently I started using Rails Admin for creating admin panel for my project. The UI for rails admin is very nice and it gives a good user experience also. I had some concerns with customizing rails admin like overriding the controller action and using custom views. For instance, suppose I need to clone a record and use it for edit action. Is it possible?

Can we use custom views or forms?

Thanks in Advance.

Hi,

You'll want to look into the github documentation for the plugin - see https://github.com/sferik/rails_admin/wiki/Custom-action for custom actions which would work for cloning. Customizing views is standard per Rails gems - copy the file from the gem into your Rails app and make edits there. I haven't done a lot with overriding controllers, but it might be in the docs somewhere (https://github.com/sferik/rails_admin/wiki).
