If someone still has problems with pagination links, there is a fix here: Kaminari: Exclude basic form params from pagination links

Although, it does not work form me, as it was described in the commit description, there are still unwanted params in the link (:authenticity_token, :commit, :utf8, :_method), but you can exclude them by setting them to nil

For example:

paginate @books, params: {authenticity_token: nil, commit: nil, utf8: nil, action: nil}

Result:

OR

Controller:

def index
  # here search staff, messing our params hash
  @books = Books.all
  @pagination_params = normalize_pagination_params
end

private
def normalize_pagination_params
 params.inject({}) do |params_hash, p|
  unless p[0]=="controller"
    params_hash[p[0]] = nil
  end
  params_hash
 end
end

View:

paginate @books, params: @pagination_params
