Excerpt
config/routes.rb
namespace :user do
root :to => "welcome#index"
end
This does not work with Rails 3.0.7 in production mode. Use this instead:
match '/user' => "welcome#index", :as => :user_root
For Rails 6, use:
get '/user' => "welcome#index", :as => :user_root
If you are using a gem that reads to URI for certain processing (like simple-navigation) the new URI will be '/users' even though you are at the '/welcome' URI (highlight is lost in simple-navigation and submenus are not rendered).
So the solution can be achieved with this:
app/controllers/application_controller.rb
def after_sign_in_path_for(resource)
stored_location_for(resource) || welcome_path
end
To make the above work, the root path has to be publicly visible!
The resulting URI will be '/welcome', which can be properly processed.
