Not navigating to a webpage after completion

I have just changed the way a user enters data, from using <h: to <:p from the primefaces library, and now when the data has been successfully added to the database it no longer automatically takes the user to relevent pages. The only changes I have made is instead of using the code below to enter data:

<h:messages showDetail="true" /> 

<h:outputText value="Enter Name : " />
<h:inputText value="#{user.name}" />
<br></br>               
<h:outputText value="Enter email address : "/>
<h:inputText id="email" value="#{user.email}" 
    size="20" required="true" label="Email Address">
  <f:validator validatorId="richard.test.EmailValidator" />
</h:inputText>
<br></br>
<h:outputText value="Enter your address : "/>
<h:inputText value="#{user.address}" />   
<br></br>

<h:outputText value="Enter Created Date : "/>
<h:inputText value="#{user.created_date}">
  <f:convertDateTime pattern="yyyy-MM-dd"/>
</h:inputText>
<br></br>

<br></br>
<h:message for="email" style="color:red" />

<h:commandButton value="Insert" action="#{user.add}"/>

The above code still works if I run that instead of the code below:

<h:form>
    <p:growl id="growl" showDetail="true" sticky="true" />

    <p:panel header="Growl">
        <h:panelGrid columns="2">
            <h:outputText value="Enter Name : " />
            <h:inputText value="#{user.name}" required="true" />

            <h:outputText value="Enter email address : " />
            <h:inputText id="email" value="#{user.email}" size="20" required="true" label="Email Address">
                <f:validator validatorId="richard.test.EmailValidator" />
            </h:inputText>
            <h:outputText value="Enter your address : " />
            <h:inputText value="#{user.address}" />

            <h:outputText value="Enter Created Date : " />
            <h:inputText value="#{user.created_date}">
                <f:convertDateTime pattern="yyyy-MM-dd" />
            </h:inputText>
        </h:panelGrid>

        <p:commandButton value="Save" actionListener="#{user.add}" update="growl" />
    </p:panel>
</h:form>

<h:form>
    <h:messages showDetail="true" />
</h:form>

The reason behind the change was to make a better look for the user, but while it looks professional and adds all the data to the database it no longer sends the user to a page is successful etc, although the faces-config.xml file has not changed. The only change is the use of primefaces. What would be causing this, and is there a way on successful input of data to take the user to the right page?

Thanks.

Your p:commandButton invokes user.add as actionListener instead of action like the h:commandButton in your first example. Simply switch to action, that should lead to the behaviour you want it to have.

If you want to make use of JSF's implicit navigation change actionListener-attribute in your <p:commandButton> to action. That's it.
