User friendly URL for pagination and sorting

Yii 2.0 General Discussions

I’m trying to make my pagination and sorting in the url more friendly looking. currently my url looks like this

https://bla.com/user/dashboard/?page=3&sort=created_at

how do i make it look like this

https//bla.com/user/dashboard/page/3/sort/created_at or

https//bla.com/user/dashboard/page/3/sort/date (to hide my column name)

currently i have this in my main.php just for page

'user/dashboard/page/<page:\d+>' => 'user/dashboard'

but this doesn’t work. Thanks

        'rules' => [
			[
				'pattern' => '/user/dashboard/<page:\d+>/<sort:\w+>',
				'route' => 'user/dashboard',
				'defaults' => ['page' => 1, 'sort' => ''],
			],

thanks. It kind of works tho. when i sort it and click on pagination it works. but when i sort is back to default i get a 404

when i sort i get this

https://bla.com/frontend/web/user/dashboard/report_type/

when i unsort the link is

https://bla.com/frontend/web/user/dashboard/?page=1&sort=-report_type&_pjax=%23pjax-reports

Change this row
‘pattern’ => ‘/user/dashboard/page:\d+/sort:[\w\-]+’,
(this will accept a hyphen)

Sorry for the confusion. I changed the pattern to your controller/action.
