Using with Devise gem for users

Make sure you have a user model that responds to admin? method. This gem uses the default authentication so if you are using Devise than you must update the code in the app/controllers/admin/blog_posts_controller.rb file and change the authorize_admin method to use current_user instead of Current.user
