I've been trying to figure this out for 2 days. I'm confirming user accounts with email confirmations (via Devise). I finally got all that working, but the whole point was to validate that a person owns the email they claim they own. Therefore, I need to have it confirm again whenever the user changes their email.

In order to do this, I've created registrations_controller and have over written the update method. Mostly based off what Devise has, but I check to see if I need to send confirmation based on the update.

# registrations_controller.rb
def update
  self.resource = resource_class.to_adapter.get!(send(:"current_#{resource_name}").to_key)

  send_confirmation = false
  if params[:user][:email] != resource.email
    send_confirmation = true
  end

  if resource.update_with_password(params[resource_name])
    set_flash_message :notice, :updated if is_navigational_format?
    sign_in resource_name, resource, :bypass => true

    if send_confirmation
      resource.update_attributes(:confirmed_at => nil, :confirmation_sent_at => nil)
      resource.send_confirmation_instructions        
    end

    respond_with resource, :location => after_update_path_for(resource)
  else
    clean_up_passwords(resource)
    respond_with_navigational(resource){ render_with_scope :edit }
  end
end

My problem is I'm not sure where in the process to be able to change where it gets redirected to. I have a page that explains that "an email has been sent in order to confirm your email". But if I try to put it after send_confirmation_instructions when the user clicks "update account" then they are logged out (pushed to the login screen), then when they confirm the account through the email, then they are directed to the page I wanted to show them.

I have a custom Warden Strategy with some puts in it and I also over wrote the before filter that Devise puts in:
