I currently have a Rails 3.0.10 app and I made two models with simple associations: has_many, and belongs_to.
After installing the ActiveAdmin plugin and creating the corresponding Ruby resource files, I've noticed some strange behavior.
Below, you can see that "Job File" belongs_to "Ernet Clients". The associations are all working correctly, however, the display name is appearing as the actual ActiveRecord object instead of the client name.
This is the show view when under the "Job File" section:
But, if I go to view the actual client, the correct text appears:
There must be something going wrong in the "Job File" resource that is causing this, but I can't figure out what it could be. After googling I found this: http://groups.google.com/group/activeadmin/browse_thread/thread/2a261e070efa7bae
Within the JobFile.register file I specified the display name with this:
filter :ernet_client, :display_name_methods => :display_name
This didn't work, though, and I cycled through all of the other available names to no avail.
I looked up ActiveAdmin's dependencies and sass-rails seems to be the only one - but that is if you are using 3.1 and I'm using Rails 3.0.10.
And finally, to be sure that my associations were indeed working, I opened up the Rails console and created a job file:
job = JobFile.new
=> #<JobFile hash returned>
job.ernet_client_id = 2
=> 2
job.ernet_client.client_name
=> Target
Everything seems to be working as it should.
Anyone have any insight on to how to solve this?
