Do I really need multiple controllers for each and every page? |

I built a website that's pretty basic, but I used CodeIgniter as the base incase I needed to add functionality. Each page has it's own controller so the URL can be clean, like this (I'm using a URL rewrite to hide index.php): http://mywebsite/lawyers http://mywebsite/practice_areas http://mywebsite/fees But for each of those pages, I have a controller. I have about 20 of them. It seems like a lot. Am I missing something? Is there a way I can have just one controller while maintaining the clean URLs like above? I tried having one controller (I named it app), but the problem was I was getting URLs like this: http://mywebsite/app/lawyers http://mywebsite/app/practice_areas http://mywebsite/app/fees

if these controller are accessing same table to get data then you can have one controller if they are getting different tables then again you can use the same controller but you controller will be little complex for both case you have to set route to your url in config/routes.php file create a route Code: if using index() function check user guide for routing http://ellislab.com/codeigniter/user-gui...uting.html

I think you can either use routes or mod_rewrite to remove app. Oops, somebody beat me to it.

Very cool. I didn't quite understand the routing, but now I do. Thanks umefarooq! |
