Redirecting 'new record' VF page after 'save' to custom page with ID parameter

I have a visualforce page with a standard controller which creates a new record on click of my commandButton. This function works using just standard controllers at the moment.

What I would like to do if insertion is successful, to redirect the page to my own custom detail page (mysite.force.com/detailPage?id=) instead of the salesforce's default one. I need to also pass the ID parameter of the newly created record so I can pull up the infomation on the page.

This can be done by creating your own save method in controller. The code snippet will be something like this: 
public class yourSampleClass{

          ApexPages.StandardController stdController;
          public yourSampleClass(ApexPages.StandardController con){
              stdController = con;
          }
 
          public PageReference save() {
              stdController.save();
             PageReference pg = Page.detailPage;
             pg.getParameters().put('Id',stdController.Id);
            return pg;
         }


}

Hope this helps.

I have used the following code:
public class force_NewOrderLogic {

          ApexPages.StandardController stdController;
          public force_NewOrderLogic(ApexPages.StandardController con){
              stdController = con;
          }
 
          public PageReference save() {
              stdController.save();
             PageReference pg = Page.force_DetailPage;
             pg.getParameters().put('Id',stdController.Id);
            return pg;
         }

}


But I get the following error:
Expression of type ApexPages.StandardController has no member named Id at line 11 column 42

Try using stdController.getId() instead of stdController.Id

Okay that allowed me to save the class, however another error has occured. When pressing the same command, the page is redirect to a page which states the following:
Error: Error occurred while loading a Visualforce page.

I should add that the DetailPage should have the correct permissions, as it can be accessed directly by manually typing the url with a valid ID.

Modify this statement with your page name.i.e, Replace "force_DetailPage" with "yourpagename":
PageReference pg = Page.force_DetailPage;

The correct page name has been used but I am still receiving the error.
