Just going for brevity |

i think you have to do something with passed params for the routes |

~tell joddit about gist |
| # |
Mar 11th 2018, 05:41 |
savant |
can you gist your entire routes.php file? |
| # |
Mar 11th 2018, 05:41 |
joddit |
I mean there's nothing directly bad about having it in there |
| # |
Mar 11th 2018, 05:40 |
ricksaccous |
oh i see |

Mar 11th 2018, 05:40 |

I don't want the action name in the URL |

When I did what savant suggested, it created a link like /articles/view/(category_name)/(article_slug) |
| # |
Mar 11th 2018, 05:40 |
ricksaccous |
['controller'=>'Articles', 'action' => 'view', 'category-slug', 'article-slug'] |
| # |

ricksaccous |
or you could just have the action take in two params, and pass those params in |

Thanks ill read about that |
| # |
Mar 11th 2018, 05:39 |
savant |
which will return the above sort of stuff |
| # |
Mar 11th 2018, 05:39 |
joddit |
Ok and thats what I figured, but it put view in the url |
| # |
Mar 11th 2018, 05:39 |
savant |
I generally add a getRoute() method to my entity |
| # |
Mar 11th 2018, 05:38 |
savant |
['controller' =>'Articles', 'action' => 'view', 'category' => 'your-category', 'slug' => 'your-slug'] |
| # |
Mar 11th 2018, 05:38 |
joddit |
For this particular site, categories are only one level deep, no categories withint categories |

The route array for Html::link() would be |

ummm |

Mar 11th 2018, 05:38 |
joddit |
Unless you recommend something more correct |
| # |
Mar 11th 2018, 05:37 |
joddit |
Just using something simple like $routes->connect('/articles/:category/:slug', ['controller' => 'Articles', 'action' => 'view']); |

savant will save you |

no worries |

Yeah sorry I DC'd accidentally if I missed your response |
| # |
Mar 11th 2018, 05:36 |
savant |
If you're asking about the slug routing, can you gist your article routes? I can then show you how to build the Html::link() calls |
| # |
Mar 11th 2018, 05:36 |
joddit |
Quick question, when creating links that don't follow the standard /controller/action/id kind of structure, do you just hand code them or am I missing something? |

when making custom URL's *** |
| # |
Mar 11th 2018, 05:27 |
ReallyTallGuyBri |
I prefer to use $this->Html->link() to create links but it seems clunky when not making custom URL's |
| # |
Mar 11th 2018, 05:26 |
ReallyTallGuyBri |
I have the routing out of the way, but do I now just hand code the URL's in views? Or is there some more "proper" way |
| # |
Mar 11th 2018, 05:26 |
ReallyTallGuyBri |
Quick question, how does one institute slugs in an intelligent way in regard to creating links to deeper structures such as http://blah.com/articles/(category_name)/(article_slug) |
