Modal to be opened after page reload in Ruby on Rails

Question

In my ruby application, i want my modal to be opened after a page reload..

I have tried the follwing code...

    $(".minus").click(function(){
       location.reload(); 
       $('#memberModal').modal('show');
    });
} );

Please help me with a solution..

You cannot call modal after location.reload() because the page is deconstructed.

I would recommend adding not using reloading.

If you really want to, try adding attribute to location and open modal according to it.

$(".minus").click(function(){
  // change it according to your use case
  document.location = document.location + "#memberModal"; 
}

$(document).ready(function(){
  if (window.location.hash != null){
    $(window.location.hash.substr(1)).modal('show');
  }
})
