For some reason (which I don't necessarily understand, since there is horizontal space), the lines were wrapped.
Here's another attempt at pasting the rules: Router::connect('/lolot', array('controller' => 'pages', 'action' => 'index', 'admin' => true)); Router::connect('/pages/menu_threaded', array('controller' => 'pages', 'action' => 'menu_threaded')); Router::connect('/products/display_by_category', array('controller' => 'products', 'action' => 'display_by_category')); Router::connect('/products/display_by_brand', array('controller' => 'products', 'action' => 'display_by_brand')); Router::connect('/produse', array('controller' => 'categories', 'action' => 'index')); Router::connect('/produse/*', array('controller' => 'categories', 'action' => 'view')); Router::connect('/produs/:brand--:product', array('controller' => 'products', 'action' => 'view'), array('pass' => array('brand', 'product'), 'brand' => '[a-zA-Z0-9\-\.]+', 'product' => '[a-zA-Z0-9\-\.] +')); Router::connect('/marci', array('controller' => 'brands', 'action' => 'index')); Router::connect('/marci/*', array('controller' => 'brands', 'action' => 'view')); //Router::connect('/(?!lolot|users|pages|products|produse|produse| marci)(.*)', // array('controller' => 'pages', 'action' => 'view')); //Router::connect('/*', // array('controller' => 'pages', 'action' => 'view')); Router::connect('/:page', array('controller' => 'pages', 'action' => 'view'), array('pass' => array('page'), 'page' => '[a-zA-Z0-9\-\.]+')); Router::connect('/', array('controller' => 'pages', 'action' => 'home')); If I insert the link the correct way: $this->Html->link('Page Title', array('controller' => 'pages', 'action' => 'view', 'page- slug')); I get site.com/pages/view/page-slug If I hardcode it: $this->Html->link('Page Title', '/page-slug/')); I get site.com/page-slug (the intended result). However, both addresses resolve to the correct controller / method / page-slug and the page is displayed.
