Open create content form modal and refresh view display in Drupal

I have a website developed using Drupal. What I want is to create a link which launches a modal window with a custom content create form, then when the form submits and the child window closes, a view or a display of a view in the parent must be refreshed.

I have tried using an excellent module like automodal and ajax_views_refresh but I can't get to set it right.

Any clues?

Solution

  • Figured out how to do this not so long ago, and while looking for a method to Preview content from the Modal Frame, came across your post. Hope this isn't to late to help.

    Open parent.js under modules/modalframe/js

    and insert location.reload(); around line 250 within this if statement:

    if ($.isFunction(self.options.onSubmit)) { self.options.onSubmit(args, statusMessages);
    }

    Now, when you click "Save" the child window closes and triggers a parent page refresh.
