Add #redirect property for form #type 'submit' to eliminate various submit handlers

Created on 8 March 2010, about 15 years ago

Updated 3 April 2025, about 1 month ago

Several forms in core has a Delete button whose #submit function just redirects from foo/123/edit to foo/123/delete.

If FAPI could handle this redirect, we could get rid of a number of very similar functions in core.

It would also make it easier to add Delete buttons everywhere applicable. Currently, not all forms in core follows the convention of having a Delete button on the edit form, e.g. admin/config/content/formats/2.

What do you think of this idea?

Thank you for creating this issue to improve Drupal.

We are working to decide if this task is still relevant to a currently supported version of Drupal. There hasn't been any discussion here for over 8 years which suggests that this has either been implemented or is no longer relevant. Your thoughts on this will allow a decision to be made.

Since we need more information to move forward with this issue, the status is now Postponed (maintainer needs more info). If we don't receive additional information to help with the issue, it may be closed after three months.

Thanks!
