Check if user is active before allowing user to sign in with devise (rails)
Add these two methods to your user model, devise should pick them up automatically - you should NOT need to extend Devise::SessionsController
def active_for_authentication? super && self.your_method_for_checking_active # i.e. super && self.is_activeenddef inactive_message "Sorry, this account has been deactivated."end
Devise (If you have devise 3.2+) now support block parameter in (session) create
# assuming this is your session controllerclass SessionsController < Devise::SessionsControllerdef create super do |resource| unless resource.active? sign_out # you can set flash message as well. redirect_to :sorry_not_active_url return end endend
