human-friendly URL with codeigniter - codeigniter

I am developing web with Codeigniter. I what the url like this:
[site]/[company_name]. The [company_name] is dynamic.
For example: http://www.abc.com/alixa
But the real url is: http://www.abc.com/shop/alixa
Is there anyway can I do with this? with htaccess or route in codeigniter?


Yap you can do it from both .htaccess and routes
here is solution from using routes
$route['(:any)'] = 'shop/$1';
by using this route you will getting problem from other url as if you wants
http://www.abc.com/mysecoundController/myfunction
it will also redirect to shop controller,
For this you have to write more routes
as
$route['(mySecoundController:any)'] = 'mySecoundController/$1';
$route['(:any)'] = 'shop/$1';
here is the link for detail

Encrypt URL with PHP Codeigniter

I have developed a website with PHP Codeigniter. It consists of many controllers and views. I want to encrypt the URL of the site to hide the controller and function name. Currently, the URL looks like this :
www.sitename.com/controller_name/function_name
I don't want the users to see the controller and function names. Is it possible to do this now because the site is almost complete. Is there any shortcut of doing this? Please Help

You can use codeigniter URI Routing to remove your controller name from URL.
$route['url_name'] = 'controller_name/function_name';
This `www.sitename.com/url_name` will look go to `www.sitename.com/controller_name/function_name`
$route['url_name/(:any)'] = 'controller_name/$1';
This will only change your controller name.. `controller_name` to `url_name`

Rewrite URLs in CodeIgniter

How can I rewrite the following urls in CodeIgniter
localhost/users/show_profile/john
to
localhost/john
Thanks

you can achieve dynamic URL using CodeIgniter Routes.
Assuming
localhost/users/show_profile/john
We're looking at:
localhost/controller/method/variable
we can use the following route:
$route['([a-zA-z_]+)'] = "users/show_profile/$1";
You can access the variable by calling $this->uri->segment(1); inside show_profile() function.
IMPORTANT: keep the $route['([a-zA-z_]+)'] at the end of the routes.php file, to make sure it's not overriding any other routes.

If you only need to do it for a defined set of URLs, update /config/routes.php
If you need it to be dynamic then you should extend the CodeIgniter Router Library.
http://codeigniter.com/user_guide/general/creating_libraries.html (look for Extending Native Libraries)

In config/routes.php add $route['(:any)'] = "users/show_profile/$1";
