To use the :country input, please install a country_select plugin

Question

I have a country attribute to my guidelines model. I don\'t want to use a plugin, I just want to have country as a string. Everything is working until I try to edit a guide

Answer 1

I'm not sure where you get this form code from but I had the same issue with Active Admin and resolved it by explicitly instructing the form to treat the field as a string:

ActiveAdmin.register Guideline do

  form do |f|
    f.inputs 'Details' do
      f.input :country, :as => :string
    end
    f.actions
  end

end
