Overriding Devise's registration controller to allow for a redirect after a successful sign_up has been done

I have tried the above solution and while it works, reading devise code, I have found that all you actually need in order to sign-out just registered user and redirect is:

1. to add is_approved or similar to your user table and
2. to add active_for_authentication? method in your User model

Code:

class User < ActiveRecord::Base

  # ... some code

  def active_for_authentication?
    super && is_approved
  end
end

Was a bit hard to find when I needed it, but that is all. I am actually writing it here in case someone else needs it.
