Hello,

I have some ressources such as “systems”, “tags”, “categories”, and I  
would like to customize them path by adding just before a directory like  
‘admin/’. In order to do that, I had editing my routes.rb file with:

map.namespace ‘admin’ do |admin|  
admin.resource :system  
admin.resources :tags  
admin.resources :categories  
end

But that’s not okay because, as you can see (after my rake routes  
command), Rails consider as a controller “admin/systems” instead of  
“systems”.

Thanks for helping,

Panda
