How would you use a chained dispatch to solve a problem like this? Something that needs to be checked before allowing anything else (besides logging in) to happen and if so force them to a specific page? A simple example would help. I'm still have it in my head that this logic should be done in the root controller since it would supersede any action in my other controllers.

Thanks,

You want to $c->detach('end') -- unless that's the default these days. I use this pattern a lot and the only difference I see is that I do:

The end action will _always_ be run, there is no need to detach to the end action.

However I'm not sure what doing $c->detach in auto will do (I guess the same as returning 0 - i.e. stop further actions from running), but I'm not sure - you should probably return 0 (to stop further dispatch) rather than detaching in the auto action..

However as noted elsewhere in this thread, I'd seriously recommend using Chained dispatch rather than auto for this (if for no other reason then it avoids the re-entering auto in the next request after you redirect issue).
