Re: [Rails] How do I prevent rails from redirecting to request referrer after create

[Walter Lee Davis]

You can define (in your controller) what the create action is after a successful save, and if you only want to do that for one format, and not the others, you can use the usual method for doing that in a controller, with:

if @foo.create(foo_params)
respond_to do |format|
if format.js
render status: :ok
else
redirect_to @foo
end
end
else
render :new
end

Using render status: :ok on success will not let anything else happen, no redirect, nothing changes on screen.

Cool Thanks I had solved this by removing respond_to and rails automatically returned 204 No content because there was no view Maybe that's not a good hack though with no respond_to
