How can I customize the active admin layout?

Question

I need to customize the active admin layout, but how can I do it?

Answer 1

You can override the active admin page layout by putting the following code in your config/intializers/active_admin.rb file:

module AdminPageLayoutOverride
  def build_page(*args)
    within super do
      render "shared/your_custom_view_partial"
    end
  end
end

ActiveAdmin::Views::Pages::Base.send :prepend, AdminPageLayoutOverride

In the above example, I have a custom view file at app/views/shared/_your_custom_view_partial.html.erb location and I am injecting that in all of my active admin pages by the above code.
