redirect after logging in rails to desired page

Question

below my the app controller and routes, normally when i open localhost:3000 its show me the positions/new page, now i get redirected to the login page which is good, but after logging in it does nothing .... while it should be routed to 'positions#new'

class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
  before_action :authenticate_user!
end

routes:
Rails.application.routes.draw do
  devise_for :users

  root to: 'positions#new'

resources :positions

end

Answer 1

If u are using Devise you need to overwrite after_sign_in_path method in your SessionsController < Devise::SessionsController

def after_sign_in_path "/positions/new" end

Your SessionController should look like this:

class SessionsController < Devise::SessionsController

  private

  def after_sign_in_path_for(resource)
    "/positions/new"
  end
end
