Custom Registrations Controller for Devise not Overriding Create Action - ruby-on-rails

Question

I have been fighting with this for days now. I have created my own Registrations Controller to allow for an amdin to create and delete users. I have left the :registerable module in my devise configuration, as I also want to users to be able to edit their profiles. I have tried taking that module out just to see if it would solve my issue. The problem that I have, is that when I create a new user as an admin, it still signs that user in, despite having my own create action. I have tried everything that I can think of to get beyond this and I am stuck.
My Registrations Controller:
class RegistrationsController < Devise::RegistrationsController
load_and_authorize_resource
def new
super
end
def create
resource.build
if resource.save
redirect_to users_path
else
clean_up_passwords(resource)
render_with_scope :new
end
end
end
Application Controller: => note, after_sign_up_path_for was overriden here as a test to see if that would work
class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
protect_from_forgery
rescue_from CanCan::AccessDenied do |exception|
flash[:error] = exception.message
redirect_to projects_url
end
protected
def stored_location_for(resource)
nil
end
def after_sign_in_path_for(resource)
projects_url
end
def after_sign_up_path_for(resource)
users_path
end
end
Routes File:
DeviseTest::Application.routes.draw do
devise_for :users, :controller => { :registrations => "registrations"}
devise_scope :user do
get '/login' => 'devise/sessions#new'
get '/logout' => 'devise/sessions#destroy'
end
resources :users, :controller => "users"
resources :projects
root :to => 'home#index'
end
And my Users Controller for admin view
class UsersController < ApplicationController
load_and_authorize_resource
# GET /users
# GET /users.xml
def index
#users = User.excludes( :id => current_user.id )
respond_to do |format|
format.html # index.html.erb
format.xml { render :xml => #users }
end
end
# DELETE /users/1
# DELETE /users/1.xml
def destroy
#user = User.find(params[:id])
#user.destroy
respond_to do |format|
format.html { redirect_to(users_url) }
format.xml { head :ok }
end
end
end
Rake Routes Output:
new_user_session GET /users/sign_in(.:format) {:action=>"new", :controller=>"devise/sessions"}
user_session POST /users/sign_in(.:format) {:action=>"create", :controller=>"devise/sessions"}

DELETE /users/:id(.:format) {:action=>"destroy", :controller=>"users"}

POST /projects(.:format) {:action=>"create", :controller=>"projects"}
new_project GET /projects/new(.:format) {:action=>"new", :controller=>"projects"}
edit_project GET /projects/:id/edit(.:format) {:action=>"edit", :controller=>"projects"}
project GET /projects/:id(.:format) {:action=>"show", :controller=>"projects"}
PUT /projects/:id(.:format) {:action=>"update", :controller=>"projects"}
DELETE /projects/:id(.:format) {:action=>"destroy", :controller=>"projects"}
root /(.:format) {:controller=>"home", :action=>"index"}
Everything else works as expected, I just cannot get the created user to not be signed in. It's not a huge issue for creating one user, but if I need to create 3 or 4, it's a huge p.i.t.a to have to signout, signin, every single time.
Any help on this is greatly appreciated.

On the third line of your routes.rb file, I think you mean :controllers => …, not :controller => …. You're missing an 's'.
