Route file question - El Forum - 05-05-2011

[eluser]R_Nelson[/eluser]
in my Site Controller i have a function called view it takes the 3rd segment witch is the username what i want to do is instead of it looking for site/view/username i want to just have username. I am wondering is there a way to put in a wildcard or the varaible into the route file so i would get something like http://www.mysite.com/username ?

Thats would breaking the CI route concept at all! Configure a hook to do that, instead play with your route. This thread should help you out...
