Question

I’m working on a site with a few controllers, and have configured my server to redirect requests for http://www.host.com/controller/function/params tohttp://www.host.com/index.php/controller/function/params using some simple regular expression matching in the apache config. Now, I am trying to get one of my controllers to redirect to another one, but without adding the index.php to the URL, which is what the redirect() function does. Is there an easy way to do this in codeigniter? Thanks beforehand!

Answer 1

You can use redirect. It only adds index.php if it is configured as your index page.

So, check your index_page configuration. It should be an empty string:

$config['index_page'] = '';

File: app/config/config.php
