Routing Question - ironPotato - 09-25-2017
Hi guys.
I am trying to build some sort of registration/login thing with CodeIgniter. This is my first attempt so please let me know if you spot something outside the original issue.
I have the registration form's action set to 'register/register_process'
The register_process only takes care of checking if the username already exists, and creating if the user if it doesn't exist.
At the end of the register_process method, I am telling it to load the dashboard view like so
PHP Code:
/** Username exists. */
if ( $result == TRUE )
{
// some code
} /** Username does not exist. */
else
{
$this->register_model->create( $full_name, $username, $password );
$this->congratulations();
}
}
}
/**
* Congratulations class.
*
* Notifies the user of a successful registration.
*/
public function congratulations()
{
$data = array(
'title' => 'User successfully registered',
'username' => $this->input->post( 'username' )
);
$this->load->view( 'templates/header', $data );
$this->load->view( 'register/congratulations', $data );
$this->load->view( 'templates/footer' );
}
The thing is, when the user gets created and the congratulations view is loaded, the URL says
localhost/sitename/register/register_process.
How do I make it show
localhost/sitename/register/congratulations
instead?

Did you try a redirect to it?

Oh yes.
I did something like
PHP Code:
redirect(base_url().'register/congratulations');
If I remember it correctly. But I wanted to pass some data in an array via
PHP Code:
$this->load->view('register/congratulations', $data);
The other thing I read about was to try using flash sessions (forgot the correct name, although I did read the docs about it) along with the redirect to pass session variables instead.

You could pass the user name to congratulations during the redirect
PHP Code:
redirect(base_url("register/congratulations/$username"));
Revised congratulations method
PHP Code:
public function congratulations($username)
{
$data = array(
'title' => 'User successfully registered',
'username' => $username
);
$this->load->view( 'templates/header', $data );
$this->load->view( 'register/congratulations'); //you don't have to pass $data again if it is unchanged
$this->load->view( 'templates/footer' );
}
