Hello, In my application I want several before filters to apply to every request except for login and authenticate. So in my application controller I have before_filter :setup_user, :check_for_duplicate_user, :update_timestamp, :kick_if_inactive then in my user controller which contains the login and authenticate actions i have skip_before_filter :setup_user, :only => [:login, :authenticate] skip_before_filter :check_for_duplicate_user, :only => [:login, :authenticate] skip_before_filter :update_timestamp, :only => [:login, :authenticate] however, when I call login or authenticate the before filters are not being skipped. Can anyone think of a reason why?
