You say you want a *list* of articles but then use an example with a
title, suggesting you want a route for a specific article. If it's the
latter, you can do:
Router::connect(
'/view/:article_slug',
array('controller' => 'articles', 'action' => 'view'),
array(
'article_slug' => '[\+\-_A-Za-z]+',
'pass' => array('article_slug')
)
);
That assumes each article has a slug. You'll want to use that, rather
than the actual title. Look at SluggableBehavior.
You can replace "view" with anything else. You could do, for instance:
Router::connect(
'/articles/:article_slug',
array('controller' => 'articles', 'action' => 'view'),
array(
'article_slug' => '[\+\-_A-Za-z]+',
'pass' => array('article_slug')
)
);
Though, if you do that, be sure to create routes--before this one--for
any other actions in ArticlesController.
