Hi, I’am new to ember and have a problem with nested resources and links. In my app I have a profile page with with a link and map section.

in the info part if I do (a link to another profile)

> ```
> {{#link-to 'profile' venn.profile_id}}
> 
> ```

when I click the link the info part is not updated. I understand why this happens, but how do I force ember to refresh nested resources?

Router.js

> Router.map(function() {

> ```
> this.resource('persons', { path: '/search'}, function() {
> this.resource('person', { path: ':person_id' });
> });
> 
> this.resource('profiles', { path : '/profiles'}, function() {
>     
> this.resource('profile', { path: ':profile_id' }, function() {
> this.resource('info');
> this.resource('map');
> });
> });
> 
> ```

My profile.js route

> import person from ‘…/utils/person’;
> 
> export default Ember.Route.extend({

> ```
> model: function(params) {
> return person(params.profile_id);
> 
> ```

> ```
> },
> setupController: function (controller, model) {
> controller.set('model', model);
> },
> afterModel: function() {
> this.transitionTo('info');
> } });
> 
> ```

Fixed it, used the wrong property.

I think, since your profile resource uses sub routes, you’ll have to use the **index** route of the profile resource.

```
{{#link-to 'profile.index' venn.profile_id}}

```

or

```
{{#link-to 'profile.index' venn.profile}}

```
