Hello Everyone,
Is there an accepted way or hook of some kind that can be used to
force all empty strings for string field types to save as nil when
editing/creating with a rails admin form?
If not could someone point me in the direction where such a config/
hook might be added in the code and I'll give a patch a try. (Rather
new to the code, not sure where a good place to start might be for
hooking into the save process.)
Best,
Evan

I ended up using nilify_blanks (https://github.com/rubiety/
nilify_blanks) and applying it to all models as appropriate.
