This patch removes navigation parameters from the issue detail URL after updating an issue.

Before applying the patch:

http://localhost:3000/issues/2?issue_count=8&issue_position=2&next_issue_id=3&prev_issue_id=1

After applying the patch:

http://localhost:3000/issues/2

Background/Purpose¶

Currently, the URL of the issue detail screen after updating an issue includes navigation parameters like:

http://localhost:3000/issues/2?issue_count=8&issue_position=2&next_issue_id=3&prev_issue_id=1

These navigation parameters are used to display navigation in the issue detail screen:

• prev_issue_id: The issue linked to the "Previous" button
• next_issue_id: The issue linked to the "Next" button
• issue_position, issue_count: Position information (e.g., "7 of 8")

The navigation is normally displayed based on the active filter and sort conditions. However, if the URL with navigation parameters is used, it is always displayed based on the parameter values, regardless of the current filter or sort settings.

For example, sharing the URL may cause incorrect navigation to appear for others. I think the URL should not be shareable.

Solution¶

This patch uses Flash to pass navigation information (e.g., next_issue_id, prev_issue_id) after updating an issue, removing the need to include navigation parameters in the URL. This ensures that a clean, shareable URL (e.g., http://example.net/issues/123) is maintained.

Additionally, users no longer need to manually remove unnecessary parameters when copying the URL from the browser’s address bar.

I confirmed all tests passed after applying the patch.
