Question

I have an ActiveAdmin app. When the user logs in, it is taken to /admin but I would like to change the redirection to something else /admin/custom_dashboards

I was able to change the redirection of access denied errors with this

application_controller.rb
--------------------------
rescue_from CanCan::AccessDenied do |exception|
  redirect_to admin_custom_dashboards_path, :alert => exception.message
end

But I want to change the redirection after login, how can I do that?

Answer 1

Found the answer: Redirect to specific URL after logging in

I just added the following to application_controller.rb

application_controller.rb
-------------------------
def after_sign_in_path_for(resource_or_scope)
  admin_favorite_path # customize to your liking
end
