Question

So, I got an interesting problem. I am attempting to override and redirect a devise sign_up and sign_in request to their appropriate profile pages but I am running into an error. The profiles and URL work by accessing it with console, link_to or by typing it out. For some reason the devise method won’t route to it. I’m not sure why. Anyways, upvotes for all that contribute or solve. Thanks!

Routes:

  root :to => 'pages#index'
  get "pages/index"

  devise_for :users, :path => 'accounts', :controllers => { :registrations => "registrations" }

  get 'users/:id/profile' => 'profiles#show', :as => 'current_profile'
  get 'users/:id/profile/edit' => 'profiles#edit', :as => 'edit_current_profile'
  put 'users/:id/profile' => 'profiles#update'

  resources :users do
    resources :profiles 
  end

Registration Controller:

class RegistrationsController < Devise::RegistrationsController

  protected

  def after_sign_up_path_for(resource)
     edit_current_profile_path(resource)
  end

  def after_sign_in_path_for(resource)
     current_profile_path(resource)
  end

end

Profile Controller

  def show
    @user = current_user
    @profile = @user.profile

    respond_to do |format|
      format.html 
    end
  end

Error message:

Routing Error

You should give an attribute to your route helpers. Try it out

def after_sign_up_path_for(resource)
   edit_current_profile_path(resource)
end

def after_sign_in_path_for(resource)
   current_profile_path(resource) 
end
