Question

It is strange. I’m writing custom user registration and want to make redirection to OTHER page after user creation, but it want to call show action.

Here is my controller:

def create
  @user = User.new(params[:user])

respond_to do |format|
  if @user.save
    format.html { redirect_to users_verify_path }
  else
    format.html { render action: "new" }

  end
end

end
def verify
…
end
in routes.rb:

       resources :users

       root :to => 'users#new'

        get "users/verify"

when I rename action into SHOW everything is working. If I name it VERIFY – it shows me:

    Unknown action

    The action 'show' could not be found for UsersController

it is obvious error, because I deleted action show. But WHY it is redirecting to show ?

Answer 1

Try to write get “users/verify” before resources :users

or

resources :users do
  member do
    get 'verify'
  end
end
