Access Rails form from different controller

Hi guys,

What is the best way to access any update and create actions from different place in Rails?

I want to move a lot of the User's actions to "Settings". What is the best way to set this up? For example - User has ProfilePhotos and I want to edit and create new ProfilePhoto in "/Settings".

I'd like to see just the basic process to make this(don't need a code here).

Thank you guys!

You can route any resource action to any slug within your routes file. For example:

get "settings", to: ProfilePhotos#new

You can read more about the fine details of routing in the Rails Guides resource: http://guides.rubyonrails.org/routing.html
