Hi All, I’m a newbie to forest_admin and rails in general.
I’m working on a rails application that has users with an avatar from action storage.
When I connect to forest dashboard, if I try to create a new user from the dashboard, theres no option for file selector for the image avatar.
How do I fix this and also show the avatar(profile picture) in the forest dashboard.

hey buddy, I set up a new project just to test out avatar display feature of forest .
Theres no problem on the rails, side, but when I connect to forest, I keep getting logged out.
I was looking for paid easy solution for dashboard, but forest is becoming a headache already.
I THINK I WILL STICK WITH RAILS_ADMIN… unless I see an easy and improved way of using forest.
thanks
I keep getting logged out.
