similar to: Redirect_to from initialize method

I''m new to RoR and have started building my first application. I''m building an account sign-up controller and I have two questions: 1. What is the best way to pass form params between methods in my sign-up controller? The solution I''m using seems too hacky and there''s got to be a something more elegant. I''m instantiating User.new to capture the

I want to be able to change the redirection url after I called redirect_to, is that possible? My specific use case is that I want to change the default redirection of "Login Engine" method signup, but I am seeing no other way then copy/past and change the parameters of redirect_to. This questions extends to render method as well, I want is to avoid DoubleRenderError exception. --

First off, I''d like to address that I''m n00bs. I''ve read the README and blogs associated with this plugin, and there really isn''t too much documentation. I have the newest version of rails,ruby, and acts_as_authenticated installed. #The setup I set up the acts_as_authenticated in the following manner. *created a table called "accounts" in the

I''ve installed the "acts_as_authenticated" plugin and made some modifications to the controller (app/controllers/account_controller.rb) "signup" module as follows: === def signup @page_title = ''Create Account'' @user = User.new(@params[:user]) if request.post? if @user.save session[:user] = User.authenticate(@user.login,

Hello all. I am experiencing something that has to be fairly common in the rails world, but I haven''t found a clean solution yet. I have a SignupController that handles multiple models in a single form. Those models are User, UserProfile, CreditCard, Subscription, and Order. When the form is filled out and posted, I want to do exactly what I would do if the form was only for a single

I''m a little perplexed why this isn''t working: private def check_authorization user = User.find(session[:user]) if user.level == 100 flash[:notice] = "welcome, admin" else flash[:notice] = "ha ha" redirect_to :controller

Hi there, I''m trying to set up LoginEngine with Rails 1.1.2 on Ruby 1.8.4 on a Windows XP box and the log is reporting: undefined method `generate_security_token'' for #<User:0x39436a0> Rendering user/signup Rendered user/_edit (0.01600) Rendered user/_password (0.01600) Rails appears to be failing on key = @user.generate_security_token in user_controller.rb in the

I was looking at Kyle Mawell''s extremely nifty-looking StateModels plugin http://www.kylemaxwell.com/articles/2006/02/06/fun-with-single-table-inheritance and before I go down the road with it, I was wondering if anyone has used it with file_column. The way file_column deals with an uploaded file -- by storing it to the filesystem in a path that employs the model name and id --

Hello, I have a form that submits data to two related models/tables. One is Customer the other is Address. Validation for Customer works fine but not for the Address. Class Customer < ActiveRecord::Base has_one :address validates_presence_of :login, :password, :email validates_associated :address end Class Address < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :customer validates_presence_of

Hi there I''ve got a user model and an address model; a user has_many addresses. A user object can be created via an html form which also allows for an initial address to be created. I''ve got a controller method working to save both objects via the form, but I suspect I can achieve this in a more rails-esque manner. Here is my controller method: def signup @user =

I am trying to make a barebones login system based on this example (which in turn is just standard RoR login) but when I enter a user name and password, it says the login is unsuccessful every time. I am not sure where I am going wrong. Here is all relevent information CREATE TABLE `users` ( `id` int(6) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment, `login` varchar(20) NOT NULL default

Let me preface by saying i''m a total noob at ruby/rails. :-) For some reason, I am just not grasping the concept of has_one & belongs_to... I''m working on a project that includes user authentication, and 3 different types of user profiles. User profiles are either "fan", "band", or "venue" objects, and user logins are "user"

I have users and companies tables where users belongs_to companies. def signup @company = Company.new(params[:company]) @user = User.new(params[:company]) @user.company = @company if @user.valid? and @company.valid? @company.save @user.save end end How can I make this into a transaction? Is this a candidate for a distributed transaction? If so, from what I understand from the API,

Hello there, this is probably a very simple problem but I''m stuck. I''m following the Login generator tutorial from rubyonrails. It''s all worked fine so far. But I want to add a bit more functionality so that when a user signs up in addition to chosing a login name and password they type in a company name which is added to a seperate table called COMPANIES. The id

My authentication (signup/login) is up and running in my app, now I need to implement an authorisation system. Its not going to be a complex one. One admin (me) and then normal members and premium members. Any tutorials or tips on a simple way to get this running? Thanks. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

I have a flash movie that I''m using for site navigation.. I have links such as: ''/site/signup'', ''/site/login'' and ''/site/faq'' where site is my controller and signup, login or faq are my actions.. I also have the following routes defined in routes.rb: map.connect "/", :controller => "site", :action =>

I had the Salted Login Hash Generator working at one point and then it just stoped working. It was around the time that I changed hosts and I think that it just might not be able to connect to the new server. I have tried everything though and it just doesn''t seem to work out. I''m now thinking that maybe it has to do with something else that I changed in the project. Is

In an attempt to provide a gracefully degradable link_to_remote, I repeat myself every time: <%= link_to_remote(''Signup'', {:url => {:controller => ''user'', :action => ''signup''}}, {:href => url_for(:controller => ''user'', :action => ''signup'')}) %> Looked around the RDoc &
