Hi, i don't know if this is exactly what i'm searching for. Permalink sounds very static. But the redirect that i posted is within a "update" action, it should simply show the just edited and updated record. But since i try to use seofriendly urls with titles instead ids i dont' succeed to redirect_to the just edited record to show, it redirects to the url with id. I guess there should be a more dynamically solution?

The id of the model is generated using the `to_param` method. If you follow the instructions in the post I showed you, you'll have Rails to dynamically generate the right path for you.

`to_param` is a model method, not a controller. Please make sure you read and you understand the links I posted before trying to write code.

@Simone i read it but it guess this is a bit to advanced at the moment, isn't there a much simpler solution, somehow like this? redirect_to :action => "show", :id => bookmarks.title
