Redirect to different page after submitting request

Paul_Harding

Is it possible to redirect users back to the home page after they submit requests via offerings. By default it seems to redirect them to the My Requests page and confirms the saving of the request with the green banner. We are currently hiding the My Requests and Team Requests views from users so a blank page is displayed.

Hi Paul,
How about a bit of java script in custom space which checks if the URL is that of the My Requests page and then redirects the browser to the desired page.
If this sounds ok and you need help implementing, let me know.

Hi Geoff, that sounds like a great way to implement for now and easy to remove once we are happy to go live fully with My Requests. Your help would be appreciated please.

Thanks,

Would it be possible to get the java script you use for this? I've not done much in Java but this is the exact issue I am currently trying to solve!

Thanks!

@Ian_Stephenson - This works for me:

$(document).ready(function () {
	setTimeout(function() {
		var url = window.location.href;
		var desiredURL = "/View/94ecd540-714b-49dc-82d1-0b34bf11888f";
		if (url.indexOf("c5161e06-2378-4b44-aa89-5600e2d3b9d8") > 0 ) {
			window.open(desiredURL, '_self');
		}
	}, 1500);
});

You should be able to add that right into custom.js.

Hi,

Is it possible only redirect on a specific request?

I am thinking to use document.referrer.indexOf to identify the previous url.
