SEO Friendly URLs

Yii 1.1 General Discussion

Dear All,

  1. I am looking at facebook groups , for example if we have YII facebook group … ( we don’t have one :( )

the link will be


https://www.facebook.com/groups/yii/

For creating event in groups , the link will be


https://www.facebook.com/groups/yii/events/

Here in our framework, groups is a controller , yii is an ID ( action GET parameter ) and events is an action

So in the URL, order should be groups/events/yii But actually it is groups/yii/events/ , action parameter is coming before action . Could someone let me know how it is possible ? What should I configure in URL manager to achieve this result ?

I am creating a control "place" and my URL link


http://mywebsite.com/place/list/Washington-52

displays the Washington city information , in my "list" action I am taking "Washington-52" as action GET parameter and parsing this string getting 52 value and passing 52 to database to get the information of the city.

From below , What should be the best approach ?using


http://mywebsite.com/place/list/52/Washington

( Two parameters , 52 as action ID parameter and "Washington" as title for SEO friendly URL )

or


http://mywebsite.com/place/list/Washington-52

( one parameter , parse the action parameter and get the value 52 )

Thanks a lot for looking at my questions

'<place:\w+>/<id>/<action:\w+>' => '<place>/<action>',
