how to redirect to 2 pages using a partial

Question

I am currently using a partial to render a like/unlike button onto 2 different views: a topics view, and a user_bookmarks view. I do not know how to redirect to the topics view when the like/unlike button is clicked on the topics view pages and redirect to the user_bookmarks view when the like/unlike button is clicked there when the code for the like/unlike button is being pulled from a partial.

Here is my partial code:

<% show_remove_button ||= false %> 

<li><%= bookmark.url %></li>
 <div class="like">        
      <% if show_remove_button %>     
          <%= link_to "Remove", user_bookmark_path(get_user_bookmark_for(bookmark)), method: :delete %>
      <% else %>    
        <% if like = current_user.liked(bookmark) %>
          <%= link_to [bookmark, like], method: :delete do %><u>Unlike</u><% end %>
        <% else %>
          <%= link_to [bookmark, Like.new], method: :post do %><u>Like</u><% end %>
       <% end %> 
    <% end %>
</div>

Here is my topics view:

<h1>All Bookmarks</h1>

<ul class="topics">
    <% @topics.each do |topic| %>
      <li><%= link_to "##{topic.name}", topic %></li>
      <ul class="bookmarks">
        <%= render topic.bookmarks %>
      </ul>    
    <% end %>
</ul>
<br>

Here is my user_bookmarks view:

    <h1>My Bookmarks</h1>

    <ul class="topics">    
        <% @topics.each do |topic| %>
          <li><%= link_to "##{topic.name}", topic %></li>
          <ul class="bookmarks">
            <% topic.bookmarks.each do |bookmark| %>
              <%= render partial: "bookmarks/bookmark", object: bookmark, locals: {show_remove_button: true} %>
            <% end %>
          </ul>    
        <% end %>
    </ul>
    <br>

    <h1>My Likes</h1> 

    <ul class="topics">
        <% @liked_topics.each do |topic| %>
          <li><%= link_to "##{topic.name}", topic %></li>
          <ul class="bookmarks">
             <% topic.bookmarks.each do |bookmark| %>
              <%= render partial: "bookmarks/bookmark", object: bookmark, locals: {show_remove_button: false} %>
            <% end %>
          </ul>    
        <% end %>
    </ul>
    <br>

And here is my likes controller:

class LikesController < ApplicationController
  def create
     @bookmark = Bookmark.find(params[:bookmark_id])
     like = current_user.likes.build(bookmark: @bookmark)

     if like.save
       flash[:notice] = "Liked bookmark"
       redirect_to topics_path
     else
       flash[:error] = "Unable to add like. Please try again."
      redirect_to topics_path
     end
  end

  def destroy
      @bookmark = Bookmark.find(params[:bookmark_id])
      like = current_user.likes.find(params[:id])

      if like.destroy
        flash[:notice] = "Removed like."
        redirect_to topics_path
      else
        flash[:error] = "Unable to remove like. Please try again."
        redirect_to topics_path
     end
    end
  end

Thanks in advance for your help!

I finally learned a simple fix to my problem using redirect_to :back. Here it is in my likes controller:

class LikesController < ApplicationController
  def create
     @bookmark = Bookmark.find(params[:bookmark_id])
     like = current_user.likes.build(bookmark: @bookmark)

     if like.save
       flash[:notice] = "Liked bookmark"
       redirect_to :back
     else
       flash[:error] = "Unable to add like. Please try again."
      redirect_to :back
     end
  end

  def destroy
      @bookmark = Bookmark.find(params[:bookmark_id])
      like = current_user.likes.find(params[:id])

      if like.destroy
        flash[:notice] = "Removed like."
        redirect_to :back
      else
        flash[:error] = "Unable to remove like. Please try again."
        redirect_to :back
     end
    end
  end
