Awesome discovery

nvm, I found it this snippet in the dashboard code:

  # Overwrite this method to customize how profiles are displayed
  # across all pages of the admin dashboard.
  #
  # def display_resource(profile)
  #   "Profile ##{profile.id}"
  # end

I edited it like so:

  def display_resource(profile)
    profile.name
  end

And now it's working.
It would be nice to add it to the documentation of belongs_to, because I spent quite some hours finding this

This is in the documentation, on the same page http://administrate-demo.herokuapp.com/customizing_dashboards (under "Defining labels" further below). However I understand how this can be difficult to find. In general writing documentation is difficult because not everything can be made discoverable, as there would be too much information and things would be hidden again.

Having said that, do you have a suggestion as to how we could make this clearer? A PR would be fantastic.

I'm closing this as it's documented, while we still would accept a contribution to improve it.
