Question

Normally after_sign_up_path would work but now that i have confirmations , this goes to the trash.

I'm searching for a way to redirect a user on his FIRST SIGN IN , meaning that

• sign_in_count == 0

• last_sign_in == nil

so i added to my applications_controller.rb

def after_sign_in_path_for(user)
  if current_user.sign_in_count == 0
    welcome_path
  end
end

but of course this didn't work. What am i missing ?

Answer 1

After testing, we found Devise sets the value of sign_in_count immediately after login, meaning that it's never going to be 0 , it's going to be 1 for a first-time login:

#config/routes.rb
devise_for :users, controllers: { sessions: "sessions" }

#app/controllers/sessions_controller.rb
class SessionController < Devise::DeviseController

    def after_sign_in_path_for(resource)
        if resource.sign_in_count == 1
           welcome_path
        else
           root_path
        end
    end

end

Answer 2

User "user" instead of current_user.

def after_sign_in_path_for(user)
  if user.sign_in_count == 0
    welcome_path
  end
end

Answer 3

You passed 'user' as a variable then you have to use that one. And give else block also because you are overriding this method, then what about the other already logged in user.

def after_sign_in_path_for(user)
  if current_user.sign_in_count == 0
    welcome_path
  else
    #root_path
  end
end

Answer 4

In ApplicationController (without devise sessions controller), using Ruby 2.5.1 and RoR 5.1.6

def after_sign_in_path_for(user)
  if user.sign_in_count == 1
    first_test_path #see note below
  else
    second_test_path
  end
end

I am directing users to the edit_user_path on first login - replacing first_test_path - with:

edit_user_path(current_user)
