Question

I am using cakephp 1.3.X . I am experiencing some problem with url routing and pagination

My URL will look like

http://project.dev/search/hamburg/place:1

Below is my Routing code

Router::connect('/search/:slug/*', array('controller' => 'searches', 'action' => 'index'));

Below is controller where I am coming to the search page

$this->redirect(array('controller'=>'searches','action'=>'index','slug'=>$slugUrl,$query));

My problem is when I go to the next page ,that won’t showing the place:1 , just linking to search/hamburg/page:2 ie. place is missing

My index.ctp paginator options are given below

$paginator->options = array(
                                       'url'=>array(
                                            'controller'=>'searches',
                                            'action'=>'index',
                                            'slug'=>$this->params['slug'],  


                                    ));

What going wrong with me. I’ve had searched a lot in cake articles , but nothing works for me. Please advise me

Answer 1

Add.

     Router::connectNamed(array('slug'));

At the top of your router.php

Or define third pass param in your route, to pass slug.

      Router::connect('/search/:slug/*', array('controller' => 'searches', 'action' => 'index'), array('pass'=>array('slug')));

Update view

     $paginator->options = array('url' => 
       array_merge(array('slug' => $this->params['slug']), $this->passedArgs)
     );
