URLs
Please note: This page is under construction and has not been finished yet.
You can generate a Search Engine Friendly (SEF) URLs using the following method:
e107::url($plugin, $key, $row, $options);
Parameter | Type | Description | Mandatory? |
---|---|---|---|
plugin | string | Yes | |
key | string | Unique key | Yes |
row | array | Array of variable data such as id, title etc. eg. user_id, user_name | No |
options | array | An associative array of additional options, with the following elements:
(optional) | No |
In this example we will generate search-engine-friendly URLs for a forum topic with the following code: .
// these values are usually loaded from the database.
$data = array(
'forum_sef' => 'my-sef-forum-name',
'thread_id' => 2,
'thread_sef' => 'my-forum-topic'
);
$url = e107::url('forum','topic', $data);
The code above loads the following file:
e107_plugins/forum/e_url.php
and generates a URL from the following array data with the unique key topic
:$config['topic'] = array(
'regex' => '^forum/(.*)/(d*)-([w-]*)/???(.*)',
'sef' => 'forum/{forum_sef}/{thread_id}-{thread_sef}/',
'redirect' => '/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?id=$2'
);
Only the value of 'sef' is used in this array. it substitutes the values
{forum_sef},
{thread_id}
and {thread_sef}
with the variables in the $data
array.The end result would look something like this: http://sitename.com/forum/my-sef-forum-name/2-my-forum-topic
