Need quick help with pjax form

I have a simple problem that I can’t seem to solve. I’m using pjax to create a form and update a field. It’s fairly simple. However, I’d like to submit the form via pjax and simply update the page without the url changing. The only way I am able to do this is by using a redirect. This is fine, but I’d like to know how to achieve this without a redirect.

Here’s the code.

Controller action


public function actionEditProfile()

    {        

        $pro = Profile::findOne(Yii::$app->user->identity->id);

       

        if ($pro->load(Yii::$app->request->post())) {

            if ($pro->save()) {

//                return $this->redirect('my-profile');

                return $this->render('myProfile', ['prof' => $pro]);

            }

        }    

        return $this->renderAjax('_editProf', ['prof' => $pro]);

    }

View (myProfile)


$this->title = Yii::$app->user->identity->username;

$this->params['breadcrumbs'][] = $this->title;

?>

<div id="profile">

    <h1><?= Html::encode($this->title) ?></h1>

    

    <p><b>About Me</b><br> 

    <?= Html::encode($prof->description)?></p>

    

    <br>

    <br>

    <?= Html::a("Edit Profile",['edit-profile'], ['id' => 'editProfile', 'class' => 'btn btn-primary', 'data-pjax'=>'profile']);?>

</div>


<?php Pjax::begin(['id'=>'profile', 'linkSelector'=>'#editProfile', 'enablePushState'=>false, 'timeout'=>10000]); ?>

<?php Pjax::end(); ?>

and the partial view for pjax (_editProfile)


<div class="col-lg-5">

    <?php $form = ActiveForm::begin(['options' => ['enctype' => 'multipart/form-data']],['id' => 'editpro']); ?>


    <?= $form->field($prof, 'description')->textarea() ?>


    <br>

    <br>

 

    <?= Html::submitButton('Save', ['class' => 'btn btn-primary', 'name' => 'save-profile']) ?>


    <?php ActiveForm::end(); ?>

</div>

As you can see, I tried using render, but that yields the following in the URL.

edit-profile?_pjax=%23profile

And I’d like for it to remain “my-profile” without reloading the entire page.

Some help would be appreciated.

Thank you
