Page is not Redirecting After Update Query in CodeIgniter

Question

When i submit form, it goes to the Preferences Controller in setPreferences method.

Below is my controller.

public function index(){
    $data['page_title'] = 'Preferences';
    $this->load->view('admin/common/header',$data);
    $this->load->view('admin/common/sidebar');
    $this->load->view('admin/preferences');
    $this->load->view('admin/common/footer');

}

public function setPreferences(){
    $preferences = $_REQUEST;
    if($this->Preferences_model->set_value($preferences)){ //model is autoloading
        $this->load->view('admin/preferences');
    }
}

In my model, it update the table, sussessfully, but it is not redirecting again to the Prefrences page. Now it is going to blank page like this http://localhost:88/personalsite/Preferences/setPreferences

Here is my Model

function set_value($array){
    foreach ($array as $key=>$value){
        $this->db->set('value',$value);
        $this->db->where('name',$key);
        $this->db->update($this->table_name);
    }
    return $this->db->affected_rows();
}

How can i redirect it to the View http://localhost:88/personalsite/Preferences/ ?

I used redirect('Preferences') but it is still not redirecting.

Try this

redirect('preferences');//The function will build the URL based on your config file values(`.htaccess` and `routes.php`).

if not working then use else condition in setPreferences function like:

 if($this->Preferences_model->set_value($preferences)){ //model is autoloading
        $this->load->view('admin/preferences');
    }else{
        echo 'not redirect'; 
        exit; 
    }

also check .htaccess and routes.php file (May be your path is going to override)
