Yii 1.1 General Discussion

hi,

in my application i have URL like this…

www.example.com/xyz/45678

now i want to modify it by

www.example.com/abc/food-new-canada(category-new or old-location)…

i know how to modify xyz with by url manager but i have doubt in 45678 to food-new-canada…

can anyone suggest me how to achieve it? is it possible?

Thanks in advance.

I think you can do that through the beforeAction in controller.php file

put all id and regarding values in an array then replace with id’s and forward the user request

3

can you give me some example code?

4

Can you give some example actions and arrays so that I can understand and re write your code

as i said in my question…

now my url is looking like

www.example.com/food/12345

but i want to change 13245 with new-spicy-canada(new/old-test-location)

www.example.com/food/new-spicy-canada

6

So as you said

food is the controller name? or action?

If it is action then 12345 always equals to new-spicy-canada ? I mean each id will be having its regarding strings?

7

food is controller name and 13245 is foodId… so instead of foodId i want to display new/old,test,location (these all are the fields of my table Food).

so in short instead of FoodId i want to display other attributes related to FoodId

8

Your action might be index? ok then you can use your query string as follows

?id=234&loc=canada&taste=spicy

i think you didn’t get what exactly i want…

now when i open food item for view from the list i am getting url www.example.com/food/12345. here food is controller name and 12345 is FoodId.

so what i want to it when i click on any food item from the list i want to make URL like this www.example.com/food/new-sweet-india

hi kalpit

add a url rule under your config/main.php




'<controller:\w+>/<name>'=>'<controller>/view',




//Controllers

you will have access to a $_POST['name'] in your controller 

...

$name = preg_replace('/-/', ' ', $_POST['name']);

$post=Post::model()->find('LOWER(name)=:name', array(':name'=>$name));

....


in your Model


...

    public $viewUrl;


   public function afterFind() 

   {

       $this->viewUrl = Yii::app()->request->baseUrl.'/conrollerName/'.strtolower(preg_replace('/\s+/', '-', $this->name));

       return parent::afterFind();

   }

...


//Views


finally replace urls with $model->viewUrl in your links
