Question

i have login form like this

log in to the application, it shows menu like this

it went fine until i click some menu, then it shows

here is the controller of the link that i clicked
i thought keuangan was already on the menu, but why does the keuangan not appear when i click some link of the menu ?

 function index()
{
    $data['title'] = 'QB Cash Advance Settlement';
    $this->load->view('menu',$data);
    $this->load->view('v/vcas');
}

here is the c_menu controller

function index()
{
    $data['title'] = "QB Dashboard";
    $data['jabatan'] = "Keuangan";
    $this->load->view('menu',$data);
    $this->load->view('body');
}

here is the menu_view

<div id ="user">Selamat datang, <?php echo $jabatan; ?></div>

the login controller

function login()
{   
    $username = $this->input->post('username');
    $jabatan = $this->input->post('jabatan');
    $this->form_validation->set_rules('username','Username','alpha_numeric|trim|required|xss_clean');
    $this->form_validation->set_rules('password', 'Password', 'trim|required|xss_clean|callback_check_database');

     if($this->form_validation->run() == FALSE)
     {
         $this->load->view('login');
 }
  else
 {

         if($jabatan == 'keuangan')
         {
                 redirect('c_menu','refresh');
         }
         else if ($jabatan == 'hd')
         {
             echo $jabatan;
         }
         else
         {
             echo $jabatan;
         }
 }

do i need to declare $data['title'] = 'keuangan' in every controller/index ?

Answer 1

The data you bind into the view will not persist. So it’s there when you load the menu the first time because you set it in the controller here:

$data['jabatan'] = "Keuangan";
$this->load->view('menu',$data);

But then when you click on the link it goes to a different controller.

$data['title'] = 'QB Cash Advance Settlement';
$this->load->view('menu',$data);

$data['jabatan'] is not set in this controller before binding $data into the view, so that’s why it is undefined.
