Render layout without application layout in rails 5

Question

I have a simple login form and a some other content which compose the rest of the application. My problem is I want to render the login form alone, then once the user has logged in he/she can see the rest of the app which is composed of the application layout. Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

You can create another layout for the login and in the controller set like this at the top of your controller, specifying the actions that will use the other layout:

layout "full_page", only: [sign_in, sign_up]

Other option is to pass to the render method the layout option:

render layout: "full_page"
