Hi folks,
Having an issue with connect-flash at the moment. I set a flash message when processing one route, and then redirect to another - e.g. update a users credentials, and then go to the ‘all users’ page.
After updating a user, I show a flash message ‘users updated’ … half the time it works, the rest … nothing.
In my app.js I have:
app.use(function(req, res, next) {
res.locals.success_msg = req.flash('success_msg');
next();
}
If I put a console.log() in there to show the value of res.locals.success_msg, often it is empty before the redirect is handled …
Any thoughts are very welcome!
