Rails - Specifiy Root Path w/ Custom URL: '/dashboard'

Question

How do I make this root path go to: '/dashboard' instead of just http://example.com?

root :to => 'dashboard#index', :constraints => lambda{|req| !req.session[:user_id].blank?}

Answer 1

You can accomplish that with:

root :to => redirect('/dashboard')
match '/dashboard', :to => "dashboard#index",
  :constraints => lambda {|req| !req.session[:user_id].blank? }
