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? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

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. bill walton wrote:> Hi Chris, > > On Thu, 2009-04-02 at 23:31 +0200, Chris Hanks wrote: >> Hi - >> >> 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.
