Hi
I've an application in CI 3.x
I have a special controller which I'd like to make more SEF

The actual uri is
http://www.myapp.com/index.php/item/detail/325

and I'd like to make it
http://www.myapp.com/index.php/item/deta...r-whatever

And also I'll remove index.php with .htaccess etc.

The question would be:
Is there any way to override site_url() and add the item's title (stored in db) as url suffix ?

I may create a model's function which can get title and then modify the 19 view files where I call item/detail controller/method but it will be a pain in the a**

Maybe another idea? Thanks

Hi,

PHP Code:

echo site_url('controller/method/'.$slug); 


You should also read the manual.
URL Helper

URI Route

Sorry, but You should also read the whole question
I stated that I'd like to avoid modifying/echoing site_url() again in the 19 view files and try to find some workaround (to solve this) in the controller itself, or routes file, or any other place

Thanks anyway

You will need to adapt it in your model and set your route for item/detail/(:num)/(:any)...

PHP Code:

protected function setUri($data)
{
    if (isset($data['data']['title']))
    {
        helper('text');

        $data['data']['uri'] = url_title(strtolower(convert_accented_characters($data['data']['title'])));
    }

    return $data;
} 


This enables you to call URL's like the StackOverflow (base_url/questions/(:num)/(:uri_title)).

This is a beforeInsert/beforeUpdate trigger for CodeIgniter 4, one row at a time.

Then you can get the item by primary key and have a SEF uri.
