Re: Routing problem with /* url
A few things come to my mind off the top off my head.
You could route your controller-action url's first, to catch the actual
links such as /members/users/login (is members a prefix, or do you have a
users method with login parameter, or do you have that as a custom route?)
Then providing you did those routes correctly, the bottom route would catch
anything that didn't match the earlier ones, hopefully your post slug.
Another idea would be to use a regular expression to match the pattern of a
post-slug, if there are any distinguishing features this would be much
more effective. If not I would recommend doing something like this:
/posts/post-slug
/blog/post-slug
/keyword/post-slug (i.e. if I was writing on a health care blog, I would
use /health/post-slug. This could produce something like
/health/top-10-diet-tips which holds the keyword health as well as the
slug.)
It would be easier to avoid issues if you did it this way.

Hi,
I want my posts url to be like this:
example.com/post-slug
so I added the routing rule on routes.php like this
Router::connect('/*', array('controller' = 'posts', 'action' = 'view'));
It works well but other links give 404 error like this one
Error: The requested address '/members/users/login' was not found on this
server.
Please advise
Thanks

Re: Routing problem with /* url
The link you gave me is done a little differently to how you are doing it
now, all the post is introducing is a new method to parse the route itself.
Normally you may have something like /posts/view/slug which may be public
function view($slug = null), then you may execute a query to find the first
post record which contained that exact slug and load the results into an
array. Mark is doing a similar search in his actual custom route file,
caching it, then passing that information to the controller so it doesn't
have to do that. He doesn't appear to mention the issue you are having,
unless I missed it, I'm afraid.
Try this for me and see if it helps
Router::connect(
/members/:plugin/:controller,
array('action' = 'index', 'prefix' = members, members = true)
);
Router::connect(
/members/:plugin/:controller/:action/*,
array('prefix' = members, members = true)
);
Router::connect(
/members/:controller,
array('action' = 'index', 'prefix' = members, members = true)
);
Router::connect(
/members/:controller/:action/*,
array('prefix' = members, members = true)
);
Router::connect('/*', array('controller' = 'posts', 'action' = 'view'));
Then try to access /post-slug and /members/users/login and see what happens.

Re: Routing problem with /* url
Hey, that was just a test to see if those two routes were working, am I
right in assuming the members one worked and the posts one worked, but all
your others did not?
All you need to do is setup routes *before* the posts route to catch the
ones which are currently broken, you can specifically define them like
Router::connect('/pages/*', array('controller' = 'pages', 'action' =
'display')); or maybe the method of doing :controller/:action would work
too.
The reason you're having these issues is that routes are executed from the
top down, so the first one to match is the one that is used. CakePHP
automatically detects routes like :controller/:action/:param, but your /*
route overrides this making this feature break. You need to specify the
routes which are being overwritten and probably do the /* one last.
Hope this helps
