After performing an action on a child controller in Rails, how can I control where a visitor is redirected to?
I'm modeling some conversations in my Rails project: I have Topics as a parent model, and Comments as a child of that model.
When a user visits the http://www.example.com/topics/show/2 page, my project shows them many comments related to the given topic. On that page, if a user clicks the delete button on a comment record, a request is sent to comments_controller and executes the destroy action. The request then redirects the user to the root page.
Instead of this behavior, I want them to be redirected back to the topic page with the comments. How can I get this behavior? I'm confused about this because only the ID of the comment being deleted is passed to comments_controller from the topic view page. It doesn't pass the ID of the topic that the comment was attached to, so I can't use that to direct the user back to the /topics/show/2 page.
