Hi there, I''m having a bit of an issue with my before_filter. I know that the filters put in the application.rb controller are global for all the controllers.

I have multiple roles in my application. Now I want to block a method for all users except the administrator and a manager.

Hi, Some controller filters: before_filter :require_logged_in, :only => [:create, :new, :confirm] before_filter :init_players, :only => [:create, :new, :confirm] The first one, you guessed it, redirects a user if he''s not logged in.
