Question

I want an custom link for my paginator. I use the folowing code

$this->Paginator->options(array(
        'url'=>array(
            "/custom",24,"custom1"
        ),
        'escape'=>false
    )
);

This results in a link with the original controller in front of the link like this:

 /controller/action/%2Fcustom/24/custom1

I want the linkt to be /custom/24/custom1. So without the escaped(/) and as a root.

How can I accomplish this?

Answer 1

Did you try

'url' => '/custom/24/custom1'

? The syntax that you use is not valid I think. The available formats are:

'url' => 'action'

or

'url' => '/controller/action'

or

'url' => array(
    'controller' => 'your_controller',
    'action' => 'your_action'
)

See http://book.cakephp.org/1.3/en/view/1387/options-url and http://book.cakephp.org/1.3/view/1448/url.

If none of these formats satisfies you, you can consider creating a custom route, see http://book.cakephp.org/1.3/view/948/Defining-Routes.
