Preface
Clicking a ui-sref links wont refresh named views' controller.
Question
How can I refresh the WeeklyCtrl When clicking on a ui-sref="root.store.page.ad({ adSlug: promo.code })" from SidePanelCtrl
note there is a reload on the page. I see the favicon blink but no re-init of any controllers routes.js
$stateProvider .state('root', { url: '/', abstract: true, views: { '': { templateUrl: 'views/main.html', controller: 'MainCtrl' } } }) .state('root.store', { url: ':storeSlug', views: { 'sidepanel': { templateUrl: 'views/partials/side-panel.html', controller: 'SidePanelCtrl' }, 'weekly': { templateUrl: 'views/partials/weekly.html', controller: 'WeeklyCtrl' }, } }) .state('root.store.page', { url: '/page', }) .state('root.store.page.ad', { url: '/:adSlug', }) index.html
<div ui-view=""></div> main.html
<div ui-view="weekly"></div> <div ui-view="sidepanel"></div> side-panel.html
<a ng-repeat="promo in promos" ui-sref="root.store.page.ad({ adSlug: promo.code })" > <h3>...</h3> </a> When WeeklyCtrl init it triggers an api call to will trigger.
Pages.details.getPages($scope).success(function(data){ console.log(data); }); In the end I want this to trigger again when I switch between promos
UPDATE:
On click of a link: API responds 3 times. controller reinits multiple times
