Hi -
I''m using Authlogic for user authentication, and I''m trying to
set up
the login screen (I''m having the same problem with the registration and
other forms, though, but logging in is a nice simple example).
My problem is that the login screen can be accessed through
example.com/login just as I''d like it to be, but when there''s
a problem
with the form input, the url changes to example.com/user_session, which
I really don''t like. If I change the "render :new" in the
controller to
"redirect_to login_path" then I''m sent to the correct url,
but the
rails-generated errors don''t appear, and the information that had been
entered is wiped out, so I don''t want to do that.
I''m using a named url for the login screen:
map.login ''/login'', :controller =>
''user_sessions'', :action => ''new''
map.resource :user_session
My controller looks like:
def new
@user_session = UserSession.new
end
def create
@user_session = UserSession.new(params[:user_session])
if @user_session.save
flash[:notice] = "You are now logged in"
redirect_back_or_default account_path
else
render :new
end
end
And a simple view, for now:
<% form_for @user_session, :url => user_session_path do |f| %>
<%= f.error_messages %>
<%= f.label :email %><br />
<%= f.text_field :email %><br />
<br />
<%= f.label :password %> - <%= link_to "Forgot Your
Password?",
password_reset_path %><br />
<%= f.password_field :password %><br />
<br />
<%= f.check_box :remember_me %><%= f.label :remember_me %><br
/>
<br />
<%= f.submit "Login" %>
<% end %>
There must be a simple solution to this - I''m just learning rails, but
even so I feel like I''m missing something totally obvious. Can anyone
make a suggestion?

Thanks, Bill.
I actually stumbled across another technique, which I adapted from some
code I found in Lovd By Less (http://lovdbyless.com)
Here''s how it works for the new user form:
Routes:
map.connect ''/join'', :controller =>
''users'', :action => ''new''
Form tag:
<% form_for @user, :url => ''/join'', :method =>
:post do |f| %>
Controller
def new
@user = User.new(params[:user])
return unless request.post?
if @user.save
flash[:notice] = "Account registered!"
redirect_back_or_default account_url
else
render :action => :new
end
end
I''ve only played with it a little bit so far, but it seems to do
everything I need, in less code than the scaffolding I was working with,
and I haven''t found a downside yet. I kind of like it.
