Help with simple routing please? - lexxtoronto - 06-12-2015
Routing is my weak point, Im still not clear how it works although I read the docs many times. Anyhoo.
This is my .htaccess file
Code:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|assets|woff|eot|img|css|js|resources|robots\.txt)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L,QSA]
</IfModule>This is my controller:
Code:
class Tlc extends CI_Controller
public function view($page='index')
{
if ( ! file_exists(APPPATH.'/views/tlc/'.$page.'.php'))
{
// Whoops, we don't have a page for that!
show_404();
}
else
{
$this->load->view('tlc/templates/header.php');
$this->load->view('tlc/'.$page);
$this->load->view('tlc/templates/footer.php');
}And this is my routes.php
Code:
$route['default_controller'] = "tlc/view";
$route['/([a-z]+)'] = "tlc/view/$1";
$route['404_override'] = '';I have my view files in views/tlc folder.
When you go to main page deltadigital.ca - everything is fine, but when you click deltadigital.ca/about-us or other similar menu items it doesnt work. It only works with full url i.e.
http://deltadigital.ca/index.php/tlc/view/about-us

I just compared with your rewrite rules with the ones that I am using. This particular line, I am using $0 instead of $1
RewriteRule .* index.php?/$0 [PT,L]
Can you try this and see if it works?
RE: Help with simple routing please? - lexxtoronto - 06-12-2015
Nope, still doesn't work, but thanks anyway as I at least I know where to look for a problem. I tried this:
Code:
RewriteRule ^(.*)/index/?$ $1 [L,R=301]And instead of 500 server it's just giving me my webhost 404 page, which is a good sign I guess.

I'm using _remap instead of custom routes with routes.php, this method give me more wave of customization.
RE: Help with simple routing please? - lexxtoronto - 06-13-2015
Thanks, I will have to look into that. But for now I guess I will just read more on rewrite rules.
RE: Help with simple routing please? - lexxtoronto - 06-15-2015
Still can't make it work. What are my options now? Do I just hardcode it in .htaccess similar to this?
Code:
RewriteRule ^pet-care/?$ pet_care_info_01_02_2008.php [NC,L]RE: Help with simple routing please? - mwhitney - 06-15-2015
You original .htaccess should be fine.
In your routes, though, the second one doesn't look quite right:
Code:
$route['/([a-z]+)'] = "tlc/view/$1";You may want to remove the slash (/) in the route key:
Code:
$route['([a-z]+)'] = 'tlc/view/$1';or to :any:
Code:
$route['(:any)'] = 'tlc/view/$1';RE: Help with simple routing please? - lexxtoronto - 06-15-2015
Thank you, but still no luck. I tried both:
Code:
$route['([a-z]+)'] = 'tlc/view/$1'; and $route['(:any)'] = 'tlc/view/$1';And also tried removing it altogether, doesnt work.
Also if I use the rewrite rule without a leading slash its giving me 500 server error
Code:
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L,QSA]If I use it with a slash its giving me my webhosts 404
Code:
RewriteRule ^(.*)$/index.php?/$1 [L,QSA]I tried other modifications of this rule online and it would give me CI 404 page.

It was a problem with 1and1 host. So FIY 1and1 not good for Codeigniter. I tried a different host and it works just fine. I can't believe I wasted so much valuable time.
