Django comments change success url

Question

I would like to change the URL you are redirected to when django posts a comment successfully - I'd much rather be taken to the page where the comment has been posted to, rather than the current redirect to a 'thanks for your comment' URL. Is there a place I can override this in django? Thanks

Just add a hidden field called next to your comment form with the value of the url you'd like to re-direct to after the form has been posted.

Example from the docs:

<input type="hidden" name="next" value="{% url my_comment_was_posted %}" />
