How can I hide content id on URL

Hi Everyone.

Firstly Sorry for my bad engelish. 

Firstly my url : explame.com/olmos/id/content-title/

So I want to hide /id/ from the URL.


So my routes.php like : 

"olmos/([0-9]+)/(.*)"] = "pages/olmos";


Thanks for your help.

Uhmm, how do you detect wich article id is the user requesting.
Maybe you can use the "slug" as the identifier like do Wordpress.

You can use a form in place of a link and pass the id in as a post.

You can try below steps to hide id in your urls.

$id = 123;

$encode = base64_encode($id);

$decode = base64_decode($encode);

Or a hidden input form field

pages_model.php

PHP Code:

   public function getMakale($id)
   {
       $record = $this->db
                           ->from('makale')
                           ->where('id', $id)
                           ->where('status', 1)
                           ->get()
                           ->row();
       
       if (empty($record)) {
           return FALSE;
       }
       
       $record->user = $this->getUser($record->user_id, 1, NULL, FALSE);
       
       return $record;
   }
   
   public function getMakaleKategori($id)
   {
       $record = $this->db
                           ->from('makale_kategori')
                           ->where('id', $id)
                           ->where('status', 1)
                           ->get()
                           ->row();
       
       if (empty($record)) {
           return FALSE;
       }
       
       $record->makaleler = $this->getMakaleKategoriToMakale($record->id);
       
       return $record;
   } 


--------------------------------------------------


controller - pages.php

PHP Code:

 public function makale()
   {
       $id = (int) $this->uri->segment(2);
       $record = $this->pages_model->getMakale($id);
       
       if (empty($record)) {
           $this->site->set_alert('error', lang('makale-not-exist'));
           redirect('makaleler');
       }
       
       $this->pages_model->updateHit('makale', $record->id);
       $record->hit = $record->hit + 1;
       $this->data['record'] = $record;
           
$this->site->breadcrumb('Makaleler', 'makaleler', '');
$this->site->breadcrumb($record->baslik, '', '');
       
$this->site->title($record->baslik);
$this->site->description($record->meta_description);
$this->site->keywords($record->meta_keywords);
       
$this->load->view('makale', $this->data);
   }

thank you veri much.

Show the fields in your database table, you would use a slug for accessing it.

Show the fields in your database table, you would use a slug for accessing it.

I have field in database : url 

http://prnt.sc/dfaztz


so first item is "id" So I wanna hide id and just I wanna use the "URL" in database. Thanks for your help

Can someone help me about it ???

Hi,

This is quite straight forward to do.

1. In a table for products you would have product_id, product_url, plus all your other columns like name, price, description etc.
2. The product_url is a unique column and can be auto generated based on, say, the required product_name, or your user or admin can add a custom one from your 'add product screen'.
3. When you generate a url like your example, you do not send the 'id', you send the 'product_url' and look up your product from that.

PHP Code:

public function view_product($product_url)
{
    // do your query on the product_url
} 


To generate the url you would do

Code:

<a href="<?php echo site_url('products/view_product/'.$item['product_url']); ?>">ProductName</a>

The url will then be something like:

Code:

www.mydomain.com/products/view_product/my_wonderful_product

So now, the product ID's are only for internal use, any reference to them in url's or your HTML is by url name, not their id. (By internal use, I mean once you have the product, you would still gather other related tables via the id, such as related products, special offers, related articles, reviews etc).

Hope that helps.

Paul.
