Generating the User Model

Hey friends -- At the end of the video for "Generating the User Model" Jason creates an account and clicks "sign up." The page is then redirected to localhost:3000, which shows the "All of the statuses" page with a confirmation message. When I was following along, mine also redirected to localhost:3000, but it's still showing my "Welcome Aboard" Ruby on Rails page. I think I may have missed a step somewhere...would I have to point my index.html.erb to 0.0.0.0:3000 or something? I'd appreciate a nudge in the right direction! Thanks in advance!

EDIT: Figured it out. Forgot to save routes.rb file after adding root to: 'statuses#index'.

Try removing public/index.html as well. That's the default home page. Also great job fixing it!
