Redirection after adding new groups and gnodes using group module

Question

I am using Group module and Drupal 8.

1. After adding a new group, the page will be redirected to the corresponding group page(ie. /group/5) but I want to change it to be the group edit page (ie. /group/5/edit)

2. After relating/creating an entity in group, the page will be redirected to the gnode page (ie. /group/5/content/116) but I want to change it to be the group content page (ie. /group/5/content)

I have read this issue but I want to solve this problem using either installing modules or creating a custom module.

I am new to Drupal and programming so it is great to have some clear and complete elaboration.

Thanks!

If The issue you posted about promises to solve your problem then your best bet would be to test the patch (always on a test server) and help this issue forward so others can take advantage of that in the future, because this is how drupal progresses mostly.

Just download the latest .patch that you find in the group modules directory and open up up a command window (in windows) or shell in linux based systems and apply the patch

in a linux based system you could run the following commands, assuming group is in modules/contrib/group and using latest patch as an example

cd modules/contrib/group
wget https://www.drupal.org/files/issues/2817109-by-rachel_norfolk-ericras-How-to-redir.patch
git apply -v 2817109-by-rachel_norfolk-ericras-How-to-redir.patch

If the patch does not report any errors you will probably get a configuration field to do what you are asking and it would be great to post in the thread how the patch went for you.

If you want something different you should create your own module and implement a hook_form_alter to set setRedirect for both of the forms that you mention similar to what rachel_norfolk does in comment #3
