I have installed Pow in Phoenix for user registration. I want to differentiate the URL and layout of my logged in users. If logged in as Admin I have created its role as admin while for normal logged in user it is User.
How can I provide the different layout to Admin user and Non-Admin users even I want to land them in different URLs lets for example for admin http://www.example.com/admin/ and for a non-admin user it will be like http://www.example.com/game.
I have read the route document of Phoenix at Routing — Phoenix v1.8.8 but not sure how to ensure that if it is admin then we need to use a new scope of admin. Can you provide me a code sample of it? Any URL which will help me on how to write code. I am beginner in this language.

You need to use
Phoenix.Controller.put_layout/2. So assuming that you have different scopes for admin and non admin:ashok
Thanks for the reply but how can I detect at route level that logged in user is admin or non-admin based on user role either ‘admin’ or ‘non-admin-user’

You could write a plug, which calls
put_layouton the conn depending on the roles of the user stored on the conn.danschultzer
put_layoutis the right way to deal with custom templates for certain roles, but I think what you are asking for is how to redirect the user after sign in depending on the role.You can customize the callback routes to redirect admin users: Pow — Pow v1.0.13
So you can do something like:
This will redirect admin users to the admin dashboard instead of the game page. Remember to add
routes_backend: MyAppWeb.Pow.Routesto the config.ashok
Thanks it works but has one issue any non-admin user if type /admin in the browser like https:///www.example.com/admin
it redirect that non-admin user to admin dashboard how can I prevent non-admin user to access admin user pages

You will need to add a plug restricting access like this: How to add user roles — Pow v1.0.13
