Question

I think, this probably is novice question, but I am novice in CodeIgniter 🙂

Well here is the problem, I’m trying to make categories and subcategories (dynamically generated) for store, and the main problem is that, I could manage to set different options to main category with _remap function in my controller. But, if I am trying to get deeper, then the same _remap function applies, and I am stuck there.

For example, the main category uri is http://project.com/store/fruits/, but for the subcategory, of course – http://project.com/store/fruits/apples.

I want to apply different view to 3rd segment, and still be able to control main category (fruits) with _remap function.

I want to use one controller over and over, but I think, it must be crazy to copy and paste the same function content for all subcategories (hundreds of them, disguised).

Maybe there is some way to do that, but I can’t find out how… Help here! 🙂

Thanks, jco for your effort, but actually, I found _remap() function working pretty well for my needs.

I created public _remap() function with two arguments – $first_level and $next_levels, and then I controlled everything after these $next_levels given information.
