Routing Question (:any)

That's a question that I have as well. I think the problem with using your solution, besides having to write all routes manually, is that you can't have a user with the username with the same value as your controllers. If you have a controller '/login', you have to prevent users creating the username 'login', otherwise no one will be able to access that user's profile. The same will happen for all your controllers.

I usually end up doing:

Code:

$route['user/(:any)'] = "profile/view/$1";

Or something like it...
