domain.com/$id or $username or w/e [solved]

[eluser]DADE[/eluser]
Hello,

I have a problem:

Well. I need someting like this:

When someone enters http://example.com/, he sees welcome page or w/e. It's easy.

Code:

function index()
{
   $this->load->view('welcome');
}

But when someone enters http://example.com/Username, I need to load different page, witch shows info about user or w/e.

I tried something like:

Code:

function index()
{
    if($this->uri->segment(1) === FALSE)
    {
        $this->load->view('welcome');
    }
    else
    {
        $this->db->where('username', $this->uri->segment(1));
        $data['users'] = $this->db->get('users');
        $this->load->view('profile', $data);
    }
}

But of course it's not work.

So question is:

How I can load http://example.com and get welcome.php page, and how I can load http://example.com/username and get profile.php page?

I saw something about routes but I don't really understand something. :\ Maybe somebody write detailed information.

Thanks.

See the very detailed user guide!

Yes, and I need

Code:

$route[':any'] = "users/profile/$1";

But obviously if I'll do this, every example.com/something, will user this route. I don't need this. I still have some other pages like.

Boom: Idea runs through my brain. Maybe if I'll write other routes all will be fine. Like:

Code:

$route[':any'] = "user/profile/$1";
$route['personal'] = "user/personal";
$route['embed'] = "user/embed";

I'll try and write back about result

Again it's all in the manual!

Note: Routes will run in the order they are defined. Higher routes will always take precedence over lower ones.

It explains everything you want, just read and try it out!
