Question

Using Rails 3.2.8, Devise 2.1.2, & Simpleform 2.0.2

I’m trying to redirect user upon successful sign in & sign out using devise.

So do I need to modify the controller if so how (specifics)?
Or do I need to implement the redirect helper, if so where do I put the helper?

Thanks a ton.

You should be able to do this by adding following to your application_controller

def after_sign_in_path_for(resource)
  some_path
end

def after_sign_out_path_for(resource)
  root_url
end

I think resource is a User class, so you can check for type and redirect them to appropriate path.
