ionViewCanEnter still executing page load

[seanmavley]

@brassier So what did you end up doing? You code looked like how? I describe mine here, yet still face the same issue:

ionViewCanEnter isn't behaving as expected

According to ionic’s blog piece on Lifecycle hooks, the ionViewCanEnter: ionViewCanEnter: Fired before entering into a view, allows you to control whether the view can be accessed or not (returning true or false). According to the docs, ionViewCanEnter: Runs before the view can enter. Point is, before a page is entered and displayed, the ionViewCanEnter should be resolved to true or false. In my case, that ain’t happening. There’s a Flash Of Unwanted Content (FOUC) The behavior I exper…

Because if I do this, it still flashes unwanted content:

  ionViewCanEnter() {
    if(!this.auth.isLoggedIn()) {
      this.navCtrl.setRoot(WelcomePage);
      return true;
    }
  }

thanks
