Can't adjust Controller in gem Devise, ruby on rails 4

I'm having difficulties adjusting the controller in the gem devise. On https://github.com/plataformatec/devise there is a guide to configure controllers:

  1. Create your custom controllers using the generator which requires a scope:

    rails generate devise:controllers [scope]

I typed in: rails generate devise:controllers users

  1. Tell the router to use this controller:

    devise_for :users, controllers: { sessions: "users/sessions" }

I added devise_for :users, controllers: { sessions: "users/sessions" } to the routes

  1. Copy the views from devise/sessions to users/sessions. Since the controller was changed, it won't use the default views located in devise/sessions.

I created a folder in users called sessions and I copied the views from devise/sessions to users/sessions

4.Finally, change or extend the desired controller actions.

At this point, I should be able to adjust the controller, but nothings happens. For example, when I do this:

registrations/new.html.erb

<h2>Sign up</h2>

<% @user.each do |name|%>
    <%= name.username %>
<% end %>

users/registrations_controller.rb

class Users::RegistrationsController < Devise::RegistrationsController
# before_filter :configure_sign_up_params, only: [:create]
# before_filter :configure_account_update_params, only: [:update]

#   GET /resource/sign_up
   def new
     @user = User.all
     super
   end

  # POST /resource
  # def create
  #   super
  # end

Nothing happens. Where did I go wrong? You can access the code here: https://github.com/Metaphysiker/philosophica

Thanks in advance!

First it looks like you typed:

rails generate devise:controllers [users] users in [] so you got a folder called [users] You may want to delete that.

But your actual problem is that you did not move the views to views/users/session the folder views/users has only a new.erb. Copy the content of views/devise to views/users and you get what you want.

Aditionaly you should add devise_for :users, controllers: { sessions: "users/sessions" , registrations: „users/registrations“ } to your routes.rb
