need help with login from different controller / layout

[der_tom]

hi,

i have devise going, but it it seems i cant login from my "home" layout, which is basically my landing/frontpage. it works when iget redirected to application layout and do the login there (users/sign_in)

here is my log in case it helps:

Started POST "/users/sign_in" for 192.168.1.3 at 2012-05-09 10:32:37 +0200

Processing by Devise::SessionsController#create as HTML

Processing by Devise::SessionsController#create as HTML

i also added this to my application helper since its what a common solutions seems to be:

  def resource_name

    :user

  end

 

  def resource

    @resource ||= User.new

  end

 

  def devise_mapping

    @devise_mapping ||= Devise.mappings[:user]

  end

appreciate every idea!

thanks
