How to create URL like "" www.domain.com/products/blue-shirts "" ?

Something like this would probably work

/config/routes.php

Code:

$route['products/(:any)' = 'products/view/$1';

/controllers/products.php

Code:

class Products extends CI_Controller {

  function view($product_name = '')  //$product_name will be whatever $1 was in the route
  {
    if (empty($product_name))
    {
        //no product passed, must have just gone to "yoursite.com/products"
    }
    else
    {
      $product_id = $this->your_model->get_product_by_name($product_name);
      //now you should have your ID and can do what you need.
    }
  }
}
