[FIXED] How to use form partial for custom create method?

Issue

I have a trouble with creating custom create method.
I'm using Projects model and projects controller. After new project is added it redirects to that projects show page. Here comes the problem. I have a button to call clone_project method since I need to create new project with the data from selected project and with empty name field. So, I've created route:

resources :projects do
  get 'clone/:id', action: 'clone_project', on: :collection
end

and a view page that uses form partial. With this I've manage just to edit existing project since I don't seem to get how to use form with post method like in create action.

Solution

instead render form partial with existing project you could try something like:

new_project = existing_roject.dup
new_project.title = ""

and then render form with this object
