Solution

  • I found the solution.

    If you want to use paperclip with active_admin you can't render outer form, becouse it's not able to use has_many association in it. My solution:

    ActiveAdmin.register Product do
      form :html => { :multipart=>true } do |f|
        f.inputs :new_product  do
          f.input :name
          f.input :price
          f.input :category
          f.input :description
    
          f.has_many :prod_images  do |p|
            p.input :photo, :as => :file, :label => "Image",:hint => p.template.image_tag(p.object.photo.url(:thumb)) 
            p.input :_destroy, :as=>:boolean, :required => false, :label => 'Remove image'
          end
        end
    
        f.buttons  
      end
    end
