I have the following doubt, I hope you can help me. I have a project in Rails which allows any user to register on the website, this user has the option to enter information from his bank account for the site to make the deposit for his services, then I have a user model that Is related to account_bank model:
How can I make the url appear like this www.sitio.com/usuario/pepe/cuenta_banco?
If I do it in the traditional way, I get it www.sitio.com/usuario/pepe/cuenta_banco/123
Thanks for the help.

So I have everything implemented with braintree and rails. However, I wanted to switch it up a little. I have a user role which is a business account. When someone wants to sign up as a business account I want them to pay before the devise registration is actually saved? I've seen it on a lot of website but cant really find any resources online how to do it. Someone please give an example of how it can work.
As a general Idea what you can do is one registration of user on business account take the card information also for billing.
On submit of that information it will go to a controller action with all the params of registration and billing.
Try to charge the card through brain tree and if they payment is successfull you can register the user because you have access to the params and you can save this transaction for the user also.
Its just a general idea that how can you implement it.
As one of the comments say, you question is vague.
What I would do is to have a column in that table that tells whether the record has payed or not.
If it hasn't payed then restrict its ability to log in. This way you can still record its information and it may be usefull for some cases, say to remind that user through an email that he/she should complete its payment.
I have finally managed to implement Facebook as an external login provider on my MVC website which seems to be working fine, but I am wondering what is the correct / secure way to allow multiple external login provides to be linked to a single account.
Lets say I login with my facebook ID, no existing account is found with the same email address and my website persists a new account with their email address and their facebook token etc associated.
Next day I login with my Google account, If i check my database for an account which already has a matching email address what should I do?
1) Link this Google account with the existing account automatically and
log them in?
2) Ask the user if they wish to link their google account to the
already existing account we found?
3) Something else?
Thank You.
It is really up to you. But the default provided in the VS2013 template assumes a one to many relationship between your internal user and any external logins. If you retrieve a user with UserManager, you will see a IList for each external provider the user has logged in with.
As they log in with the new provider, you would normally not automatically know the user is associated with another provider's login. When you login it looks up a user via external ProviderKey, so initally would not find any relation to an internal user. At that point you could search users by name, email (with customized user store) and so on to link as needed.
Assuming primary emails registered on facebook and google for example, are verified by them (which they usually are) I don't see any issues on linking them together.
I think the main problem is linking internal account with email that was not verified to be from specific user. If i create an account with email of other user and that email is not verified, when the other user creates an account it associates the data of the first user together and that way both users are using the same account.
Can anyone identify and explain potential flaws for my first claim please?
I'm coding a simple app which should use some FB connect mechanics but I don't want too much overhead here so maybe you can share your thoughts/experience on my task:
merchants can post products they want to give away for free
users can register for the article and get into a raffle
Once a user enters the page, I want the page to connect to his FB profile URL (facebook.com/username). User hits a "Add me to the raffle" button, the FB profile URL gets stored into my model. The merchant or a cron choses the FB profile URL randomly, displays it and lets the merchant connect to the winner (this I realised already).
This is what I've done so far:
http://limitless-brook-6233.herokuapp.com/ads/1
as you can see, I realised it via email addresses which get shuffled by the merchant. This is not very clever since FB profiles are somehow more unique and everyone can participate only one time.
What is the smartest way in your opinion to retrieve a user's Facebook URL and store it into my database? I just need to attach it to some text/input field (non editable) and let the user hit that button.
Thanks for any support.
You need to use Facebook login, take a look here
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/facebook-login/
or here
https://github.com/mkdynamic/omniauth-facebook
for the second one use version 1.4.0 as 1.4.1 has ome annoying bugs.
I'm using Devise with my Rails app and I'm looking at using the Omniauth-Facbook gem. My app has views that show the users's by user name. What I haven't been able to figure out is how I can prompt a user for a user name when doing this.
I know that I can request this from Facebook, if the user has created a FB user name. Many people have not specified a user name for their FB account, so this does not seem like the best approach. I've read other answers which indicate that perhaps the email should be used instead, which works if the user name is solely for logging on, but this is obviously not a good idea if the user name is going to be shown on user views.
If anyone could provide guidance on how to best prompt or get a user name while registering someone through Omniauth-Facebook, that would be very appreciated. Thank you!
when you sign up for facebook, then check whether they have username in the facebook, if no,then just redirect to your path to update the username?
I am currently working a system whereby my users can pay for items that they have added to an order.
The payment will be using Worldpay.
I have a Worldpay account, but I am a little confused as to what steps I need to do next.
I am using symfony and I have an order, with products associated to it. I have then created a 'Pay Now' link, which links to a executePayment action.
What I'd really like, is for this to then take me to the hosted payment pages on Worldpay, pay for the order and then takes me back to my site to an order success page.
Has anyone implemented WorldPay using symfony before?
Thanks
EDIT:
So It seems, that I can have a form on the page where the Pay Now button is, but change it to a <input type="submit" /> and then post the details to https://secure-test.wp3.rbsworldpay.com/wcc/purchase
Is there some kind of callback functioanlity, to redirect me to a confirmation/failure page if the transaction was completed?
Thanks
WorldPay works like this...
1) You have a form on your website that collects your customer details. You then POST this data to https://secure-test.wp3.rbsworldpay.com/wcc/purchase
2) The customer will add their payment details in to WorldPay
3) Next, (depending on if the payment was successful or not) the user will be either directed to your resultY.html or resultC.html page that you can upload to your file management section within the WorldPay admin.
Alternatively you can supply a URL to a callback file on your server that is pinged when the customer clicks pay. This allows you to get information about the transaction and add it to your database.
With the callback page on your server, you can output a confirmation of payment, but you then have to include a link to physically get the user to come back to your site. I think automatically redirecting from this page is against Worldpay's T&Cs.
Hope this helps.

I user RBSWorldPay with Symfony - its very simple to setup - yes there is a callback function that you setup within the Settings of your RBSWorldPay account - you can also test by adding a test field - again check the RBS Documentation for testing.
