Redirect after registration

[Neil]

I have an application where the requirement is that once a user has
filled in the registration form, that they are signed in, and taken to
a page thanking them for the registration.

How would I go about doing this with Devise? I am not using
confirmation emails.

You will find answers to most or your Devise questions here:
http://rdoc.info/projects/plataformatec/devise

Scroll down to Configuring controllers. Essentially, you will want to create
a controller that extends Devise's RegistrationsController like this:

class Users::RegistrationsController < Devise::RegistrationsController
def after_sign_in_path_for(resource)
user_thank_you_path
end
End

What you're doing is overwriting the after_sign_in_path for the
RegistrationsController.

Make sure to copy the Devise views from devise/registrations/edit.html.erb
and devise/registrations/new.html.erb to users/registrations/edit.html.erb
and users/registrations/new.html.erb

You will also want to do something like this in your routes:

devise_for :users, :controllers => { :registrations => "users/sessions" }

Hope that helps you out.

How would I acheive the same thing, but being able to redirect to some
sort of saved location?

i.e Registration process a ends at page x
Registration process b ends at page Y

You're going to have to overwrite the create method in
Users::RegistrationsController (which extends from
Devise::RegistrationsController) and pass in some params through your form.
You could name it after_sign_up_path. Something like:

def create
build_resource

if resource.save
set_flash_message :notice, :signed_up
sign_in(resource_name, resource)
redirect_to params[:after_sign_up_path] ||
after_sign_in_path_for(resource)
else
clean_up_passwords(resource)
render_with_scope :new
end
end

That should get you started... unless José has a better idea.

Have you looked at this page?

There's also this hack, which I can't recall where I saw (probably
from someone else on this list):

###ApplicationController
def stored_location_for( resource )
if current_user
Rails.logger.info "count: " + current_user.sign_in_count.to_s
if current_user.sign_in_count <= 1
UserMailer.deliver_first_visit(current_user)
elsif ( current_user.first_name.blank? ||
current_user.last_name.blank? || current_user.phone.blank? ||
current_user.company_name.blank? )
set_flash_message :notice, 'Please update your profile'
return '/users/' + current_user.id.to_s + '/edit'
end
end
super( resource )
end

Not pretty, but it works for what I need to do.
