I don't know who the user is until it connect to the application. I use devise. If the user is signed_in the I want "application" layout and he can create/modify/destroy. If the user is not signed in then I must distinguish if to use "intra" layout or "inter" layout. To do this I am thinking to set a session variable called, for example, session[:intra] or session[:inter]. The choice If to use session[:intra][ or session[:inter] is done looking at url. If localhost/intra then I use "intra" layout and set session[:intra], if localhost/inter I use "inter" layout and set session[:inter].
