routing problem - El Forum - 11-16-2008
[eluser]Thorpe Obazee[/eluser]
I need to have a url that either accepts
website.com/index.php/ad/2212
website.com/index.php/ad/2212/
or website.com/index.php/ad/2212/free-computers
I already have a routing like this:
Code:
$route['ad/(\d+)/(:any)'] = "ad/view/$1";this only works for "website.com/index.php/ad/2212/free-computers" but not for "website.com/index.php/ad/2212" or "website.com/index.php/ad/2212/"

My fix right now is this
Code:
$route['ad/(\d+)'] = "ad/view/$1";
$route['ad/(\d+)/(.*)'] = "ad/view/$1";I have 2 routes. I am thinking if there's a better way to do this using one route.

Does this work for you:
Code:
$route['ad/(\d+)/?.*'] = "ad/view/$1";routing problem - El Forum - 11-17-2008

Routing an url with more than the needed arguments should raise an error otherwise spiders will fetch duplicate content which reduces your chances having a good page ranking.

Unless it isn't publicly accessible (read: backend), but xwero does make a good point here.
