Rails: I installed ActiveAdmin and my devise link stopped working

Question

I have devise installed.
And I have a link: <%= link_to "Sign up", new_user_registration_path %>

When I installed ActiveAdmin (for existing model User ), this link stopped working:

undefined local variable or method `new_user_registration_path'

I used git diff for routes.rb and here it is (added lines are black):

ActiveAdmin.routes(self)
devise_for :users , ActiveAdmin::Devise.config

Also <%= link_to "Sign out", destroy_user_session_path, :method => :delete %> now leads to /admin/logout

How can I solve this problem?

rake routes:

Answer 1

One thing you might be missing is to declare your User model as 'registerable' to get the signup routes generated by Devise.

You should have something like this:

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  # Include devise modules
  devise :database_authenticatable, :registerable, ...

I ran into this problem once and this is what solved it.

Answer 2

It seems that you are using the same model for both normal users and admin users. ActiveAdmin requires a separate model for admins. Try reverting the changes made by the generator and then run this:

rails generate active_admin:resource AdminUser
rake db:migrate

This will create an AdminUser model that will have absolutely no link with your site's users.

Answer 3

在routes.rb中，指定devise_for：users这将恢复设计用户路由
