Overriding redirect path after user has confirmed account - Devise

Question

What I want to happen is once a user clicks on the confirmation link - and their account is confirmed successfully - they should be redirected to some specified path, if they have a particular role assigned (which is assigned, successfully, in an after_create callback on the User model).

I have created a RegistrationsController:

class RegistrationsController < Devise::RegistrationsController
  protected

  def after_sign_up_path_for(resource)
    if resource.has_role? :seller
      new_item_path
    else
      root_path
    end
  end
end

But, this always redirects to the root_path....even though, I have verified that, the user does indeed have that role.

Edit 1

It seems that the confirmation request is never sent to the RegistrationsController:

This is what my routes.rb looks like

  devise_for :users, :path_names => { :sign_up => "register", 
                                      :sign_in => "login", 
                                      :sign_out => "logout",
                                      :settings => "settings" },
                      :controllers => { :registrations => "registrations" }

  devise_scope :user do
    get "login", :to => "devise/sessions#new"
    get "register", :to => "registrations#new"
        get "settings", :to => "devise/registrations#edit"
    get "logout",   :to => "devise/sessions#destroy"    
  end

Answer 1

I eventually figured it out.

I had to create a ConfirmationsController.rb class that overrides Devise's Confirmation controller.

class ConfirmationsController < Devise::ConfirmationsController
  protected
    def after_confirmation_path_for(resource_name, resource)
      if resource.has_role? :seller
        new_item_path
      else
        root_path
      end
    end
end

Then in my routes.rb:

  devise_for :users, :path_names => { :sign_up => "register", 
                                      :sign_in => "login", 
                                      :sign_out => "logout",
                      :settings => "settings" },
                      :controllers => {:confirmations => "confirmations"}

  devise_scope :user do
    get "login", :to => "devise/sessions#new"
    get "register", :to => "devise/registrations#new"
    get "settings", :to => "devise/registrations#edit"
    get "logout",   :to => "devise/sessions#destroy"    
  end

That seems to work just fine for me.
