Well, I dont care very much how. The thing is that create and edit will be
called from another application through curl. So I will never need to go to
the presentation page for edit and create. It is just enough that there will
be route for when the form is posted.

As I said, it works for create. But not for edit. I wonder why it works for
create but not edit.

So you say the only solution is to add a custom route? Do you mean that kind
of routes like:

# This is a legacy wild controller route that's not recommended for RESTful
applications.
  # Note: This route will make all actions in every controller accessible
via GET requests.
  # match ':controller(/:action(/:id(.:format)))'

If yes: But this talks about GET, hoe can I make t work for POST?
