Cannot override Devise passwords controller - ruby-on-rails

I need my Rails app to redirect to the home page after I submit the email to send me reset password instructions. Devise, by default renders the sign in form after entering the email.
So I am trying to override the Devise::PasswordsController and change its redirect_to, but no success. In fact, I don't think Rails is even taking in my class. It could be a very stupid mistake but I have been at it for half a day with no success.
I took the idea to override the passwords controller from here.
Here's my controller:
class PasswordsController < Devise::PasswordsController
protected
def after_sending_reset_password_instructions_path_for(resource_name)
root_url
end
end
Routes.rb:
devise_for :users, :controllers => {:passwords => "passwords"}
devise_for :users, :controllers => {:registrations => "registrations"}
devise_for :users, :controllers => {:sessions => "sessions"}
I would like to mention that I have overridden Devise's Registations and Sessions Controllers in the same app, and they seem to work fine.

It should be possible to override the controller with the latest version of Devise (2.1.2).
class PasswordsController < Devise::PasswordsController
def new
super
end
def create
..override method here..
end
end
And in config/routes.rb:
devise_for :users, controllers: { passwords: 'passwords', .. }
You can check with rake routes if Rails uses the derived PasswordsController instead of the original one, the routes should for instance contain passwords#new instead of devise/passwords#new.

I think you forgot to mention your changes in the routes:
devise_for :users, :controllers => {:sessions => "sessions", :passwords => "passwords"}

Rails: Routing Error uninitialized constant RegistrationsController

I am trying to implement devise authentication using ajax and jquery. I generated devise controllers using:
rails g devise:controllers users It created all the necessary controller files required such as sessions, registration.
These are the controller files:
class Users::SessionsController < Devise::SessionsController
respond_to :html, :json
end
class Users::RegistrationsController < Devise::RegistrationsController
respond_to :html, :json
end
routes.rb file looks like below:
devise_for :users, controllers: {sessions: 'sessions', registrations: 'registrations'}
As soon as I fill the registration form and hit enter I get:
Routing Error
uninitialized constant RegistrationsController
You're missing the namespace in your routes
devise_for :users, controllers: {
sessions: 'users/sessions',
registrations: 'users/registrations'}
change routes.rb from
devise_for :users, controllers: {sessions: 'sessions', registrations: 'registrations'}
to
devise_for :users, controllers: {sessions: 'users/sessions', registrations: 'users/registrations'}
I experienced this issue when working on a Rails 6 application.
I had my model named application_registration.rb
My views directory was app/views/application_registrations
And my routes was: resources :application_registrations, only: [:create, :update, :new, :edit]
But it was throwing an error:
uninitialized constant ApplicationRegistrationsController Did you mean ApplicationController
Here's how I fixed it:
The issue arose from the naming of my controller.
I had named it application_registrations.rb
All I had to do was to rename it to application_registrations_controller.rb
That's all
I hope this helps

Cannot override after_inactive_sign_up_path_for on Devise RegistrationsController

I am using Devise with Invitable and Confirmable.
When signin up, I would like to redirect the user to a confirm page, instead of showing the flash message.
I have in my route.rb setup the following:
devise_for :users, controllers: {
:confirmations => 'confirmations',
:registrations => 'registrations'
}
And my RegistrationsController (/app/controllers/registrations_controller.rb) is:
class RegistrationsController < Devise::RegistrationsController
protected
def after_inactive_sign_up_path_for(resource)
"http://google.com"
end
end
But no matter what I try, after_inactive_sign_up_path_for is not being called, and it just continues with the flash message.
Change this
:registrations => 'registrations'
to
:registrations => "users/registrations"
Also, you are overriding the inactive signup, if you want to redirect after a successful signup then you should override def after_sign_up_path_for(resource)

Sharing RegistrationController for two devise models

I have two devise models, Individual and Group. I'm trying to share similar behavior for Registrations/Confirmations (send users to a page that informs them that an email has been sent, or send them to the edit page after confirmation, etc.)
My issue is that this works for Individuals, only. It has yet to work for Groups.
config/outes.rb:
devise_for :individuals, :controllers => {:confirmations => "Confirmation", :registrations => "Registrations"}
devise_for :groups, :controllers => {:confirmations => "Confirmation", :registrations => "Registrations"}
app/controllers/registrations_controller.rb:
class RegistrationsController < Devise::RegistrationsController
def after_inactive_sign_up_path_for(item)
"/post_sign_up?email=#{item.email}"
end
end
app/controllers/confirmation_controller.rb:
class ConfirmationController < Devise::ConfirmationsController
def after_confirmation_path_for(name, resource)
case resource.class
when Individual then edit_individual_path resource
when Group then edit_group_path resource
else super name, resource
end
end
end
The above code works for individuals, only. Can't figure out why though.
I was focused so heavily on the provided lines in routes.rb, I failed to notice another "devise_for :groups" at the top of the file. Apparently devise will override previous values in this case. Stupid mistake.
for scale & no errors - better to devide.
admin_registration_controller.rb:
class AdminRegistrationsController < Devise::RegistrationsController
end
user_registration_controller.rb:
class UserRegistrationsController < Devise::RegistrationsController
end
routes:
devise_for :admins, controllers: { registrations: 'admin_registrations' }
devise_for :users, controllers: { registrations: 'user_registrations' }

Devise invitable - How to add a Method to InvitationsController < Devise::InvitationsController

I'm using the devise invitable gem: https://github.com/scambra/devise_invitable
My App also has a controller: invitations_controller.rb, which starts with:
class InvitationsController < Devise::InvitationsController
I'm allowing users to register with FB and would like to add a method to this controller:
def fb_create
Rails.logger.info 'fb_createfb_createfb_createfb_createfb_createfb_createfb_createfb_createfb_create'
end
I tried adding this to my routes.rb file as so:
post "/users/invitation/fb_create" => "invitations#fb_create"
But that failed. How can I add a route for this method?
Currently my routes has been using this for devise:
devise_for :users, :controllers => {:invitations => "invitations", :sessions => "sessions", :registrations => "registrations"}
Thanks
devise_for :users, :controllers => {:invitations => "invitations", :sessions => "sessions", :registrations => "registrations"} do
post "/users/invitation/fb_create" => "invitations#fb_create", :as => "invitation_fb_create"
end
that would generate invitation_fb_create_path helper method pointing to that action

Devise custom registrations controller error

When I try to create a custom devise controller:
class RegistrationsController < Devise::RegistrationsController
def new
super
end
def create
# add custom create logic here
end
def update
super
end
end
I get a following error:
Unknown action
AbstractController::ActionNotFound
It is not the problem with routes. I tried to inherit RegistrationsController from ApplicationController and it works fine. As soon as i try to inherit from Devise::RegistrationsController it shows an error. It can't be an action problem to, becuse I tried to create a different action, and I get the same error.
# app/config/routes.rb
devise_for :users, :controllers => {:registrations => "registrations"}
root :to => "registrations#new"
Using Rails 3.0.4
In your routes you have to use devise_scope if you are overriding devise default actions.
devise_for :users, :controllers => {:registrations => "registrations"}
devise_scope :user do
root :to => "registrations#new"
end
For a similar issue please see http://groups.google.com/group/plataformatec-devise/browse_thread/thread/a5beaaf4b1ad343a
Also here are the docs on changing default sign in routes, I know this you are doing registration, but this could be similar: https://github.com/plataformatec/devise/wiki/How-To:-Change-the-default-sign_in-and-sign_out-routes
I used the following code in my project successfully:
app/controllers/users/registrations_controller.rb
class Users::RegistrationsController < Devise::RegistrationsController
end
routes.rb
devise_for :users, :controllers => { :registrations => "users/registrations" }
