In my app, I’ve got a little box that appears on every page, checking on the status of requests made by the user. If a request is accepted at any time, then the user should automatically be taken to a certain page. This is my code so far:

 <% offersMade.each do |w| %>
  <% if w.accepted == true %>
   <% redirect_to offer_path(:email => "email@gmail.com") %>
  <% end %>
 <% end %>

But I’m getting this error:

undefined method `redirect_to' for #<ActionView::Base:0x1042a9770>

Is it not possible to user redirect_to in a view? If not, is there something else I can use? Thanks for reading.

    redirect_to is a method of ActionController::Base Class so you can not use it in ActionView.

    You can try following

    <% if w.accepted == true  %>
  <script type="text/javascript">
    window.location.href="/logins/sign_up"  // put your correct path in a string here
  </script>
<% end %>

    Edited for the email parameter

    window.location.href="/logins/sign_up?email=<%= w.email %>"

    Sorry i don’t know if there is anything in ruby for that.
