Show me an example from your development console. Copy and paste. Make sure that you include the part where we can see the parameters being passed into your controller. I suspect that you are trying to pass a type = 'admin' parameter somewhere, that's what the error looked like earlier. Type columns in polymorphic relationships must be passed a valid constant name, which will begin with an upper-case letter. If there is a model in that relationship named admin, you would pass Admin rather than admin.
