Routes and hashed URLs

Personally I use this .htaccess for CI:

Code:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|resources|vendor|robots\.txt)
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L,QSA]
</IfModule>

resources = images, css, js...
vendor = boostrap, jquery...

You can remap your URL with URI Routing.

application/config/routes.php

PHP Code:

$route['default_controller'] = 'dashboard';
$route['404_override'] = '';
$route['translate_uri_dashes'] = FALSE;

$route['(:any)'] = 'dashboard/index/$1'; 


application/controllers/Dashboard.php (case sensitive)

PHP Code:

<?php
defined('BASEPATH') OR exit('No direct script access allowed');

class Dashboard extends CI_Controller
{
    public function index($id = '')
    {
        echo $id;
    }
} 


@InsiteFX: I thinks this is more like uniqueness like e.g. pastebin or regex101 does.
