I have a new user form, which renders with a different layout than the normal user show view. I need to either redirect or somehow swap out the full page on the form submission, but I want to keep the turbostream functionality for rendering errors. So far, redirecting to show fails to render the layout and fails to update the page. Is there a standard way to do this? Thank! ---

If this form is inside of a turbo-frame you can set the target attribute to “\_top” this means anything inside would navigate the whole page than when you redirect it should navigate the whole page. ---

Wouldn’t that break the normal behavior for when errors are returned? Also, I can’t get any views to be rendered with the full layout. ---

For the errors to still be rendered without leaving the page you could use a turbo\_stream response from the controller to replace the form. about the views not being rendered with the layout I’m not sure, where is it happening exactly? ---

Using target `_top` indeed ruins the benefit of putting the form in a `turbo_frame`. Personally I’ve found that it also just doesn’t work with redirect responses and I’m confused as to why I keep seeing it recommended. There’s a bunch of posts expressing confusion about this exact issue. See: 1. [Turbo and form redirects (again!)](https://discuss.hotwired.dev/t/turbo-and-form-redirects-again/3300) 2. [Form redirects not working as expected](https://discuss.hotwired.dev/t/form-redirects-not-working-as-expected/2058/) 3. [Break out of a frame during form redirect - #6 by adamsestra](https://discuss.hotwired.dev/t/break-out-of-a-frame-during-form-redirect/1562/6) 4. [Redirect to new page on successful form submission, rerender otherwise · Issue #138 · hotwired/turbo · GitHub](https://github.com/hotwired/turbo/issues/138#issuecomment-944973592) The form replacement is great for errors, but when the form succeeds and gets a redirect response, Turbo, by design, doesn’t follow it. Confusing, right? My recommendation is to disable Turbo on any form that has a redirect response. Seems crazy but [the alternative of using a hack](https://github.com/hotwired/turbo/issues/138#issuecomment-944711809) to call `Turbo.visit` after Turbo doesn’t render the redirect is worse IMO. The only forms where I have Turbo enabled are ones where the success response can just replace the form with a success message. For example when the user has to go click a confirm link in their email.
