Unpermitted Parameters adding new fields to Devise in rails 4.0

Question

Very new to working with rails. I have implemented a basic login system using Devise. I am trying to add a couple of new fields (bio:string, name:string) into the sign_up pa

Answer 1

For both sign_up and account_update do this for controllers/applcation_controller.rb

class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
  protect_from_forgery with: :exception
  before_action :authenticate_user!

  before_action :configure_permitted_parameters, if: :devise_controller?
  protected
  def configure_permitted_parameters
    devise_parameter_sanitizer.for(:account_update) { |u| u.permit(:password, :password_confirmation,:current_password,:email,:name, :phonenumber,:province,:city,:area,:idcardimg,:role) }
    devise_parameter_sanitizer.for(:sign_up) { |u| u.permit(:password, :password_confirmation,:current_password,:email,:name, :phonenumber,:province,:city,:area,:idcardimg,:role) }
  end
end
