Question

Currently I’m experiencing a problem after editing orders in the Magento admin. The page is always redirected to another URL, the base of which belongs to the store view that the order belongs to. And this page requires re-login to the admin.

For example, I have two base URLs, each belongs to one store view:

www.example.old.com //old store view (default)
www.example.new.com //new store view

The system uses www.example.old.com as the default base URL. So under www.example.old.com I create an order for the new store and invoice it. Then on submitting the invoice, the page is redirected from

http://www.example.old.com/index.php/admin/sales_order_invoice/new/order_id/1234/

to

http://www.example.new.com/admin/sales_order/view/order_id/1234/

And it requires login for another time.

I traced the redirection code to Mage_Core_Model_Url

public function getRouteUrl($routePath=null, $routeParams=null)
    ...
    $url = $this->getBaseUrl().$this->getRoutePath($routeParams);

public function getBaseUrl($params = array())
    ....
    if (isset($params['_store'])) {
        $this->setStore($params['_store']);
    }
    ....
    return $this->getStore()->getBaseUrl($this->getType(), $this->getSecure());

Then I don’t know what to do. There is no parameter _store but it seems that Magento determines which store view to run based on the order being treated, when it is supposed to stay on the same base URL throughout the admin.

For those who may still show interests to this old entry, I share my solution. It is not a good one, indeed it is a hard-coded redirection to avoid going back to an uncertain URL, but it fixed the problem for me.

In the controller action where the redirection happens, modify

$this->_redirect(..., array(... => ...));

to

$this->_redirect(..., array(... => ..., '_store' => Mage::app()->getStore($storeId)));

This ensures that the redirection always goes to the specified store.
