Requiring trailing slash at end of URL |
[eluser]jplanet[/eluser]
I have come to find out that it is good practice for SEO purposes to have URL's which will only respond to one precise format. With Codeigniter, I am finding that I can always add a slash to the end of the URL so that: www.example.com/controller/function can also be successfully requested with: www.example.com/controller/function/ For other reasons, I would very much like to require that the last slash IS always present, so that if someone requests the URL, it will transparently perform a 301 redirect to include the trailing slash, similar to what happens when you navigate to a URL which is a directory root. Is this best done in the routes.php, htaccess, or with a custom function? |
