My issue seems to be related to Rails railties :
action_controller/metal/params_wrapper.rb#_default_wrap_model

quoted :
 # Determine the wrapper model from the controller''s name. By
convention,
      # this could be done by trying to find the defined model that has the
      # same singularize name as the controller. For example,
+UsersController+
      # will try to find if the +User+ model exists.
      #
      # This method also does namespace lookup. Foo::Bar::UsersController
will
      # try to find Foo::Bar::User, Foo::User and finally User.

So, I ma trying to access  Cms::Site model from my own admin
controller:  Backoffice::CmsAdmin::SitesController
Then it''s looking for    Backoffice::CmsAdmin::Sites,  CmsAdmin::Sites,
 Sites

but even if I use the controller Cms
namespace, Backoffice::Cms::SitesController
and  the model defined :      class Cms::Site < ActiveRecord::Base   ( I
also tried  module Cms and class Site )
I get the same error :
LoadError in Backoffice::Cms::SitesController#index

.../app/models/cms/site.rb to define Site


weird .. in the console    Cms::Site.all gives [] , so the model is
correctly loaded...
