I’m glad that it has come in handy. I’m afraid that I haven’t done any new CakePHP development pretty much since I did built this (work going in different directions etc.)

I do have a plan to put all my archive stuff up on Bitbucket (I prefer Mercurial to Git) – but realistically I’m so busy this will probably never happen

On a kind of related note though I’ve just finished an extremely complex project which (excluding design work) a team of four of us put together in less than 2 weeks. We used Yii and none of us build a production site with it before. Can’t say it wasn’t extremely stressful, but overall it was a very positive experience – and it is a delight to work with.

More stuff that would be great:

submenus – all the stuff below current item
Limit depth – just show nth level of items – eg if you don’t want drop down in menus.

Have you implemented either of those? Are you planning any further updates? Is it on github or anything?

Thanks again,

will

Thanks for help!

$$$$ -> I mean no so ->passedArgs, but url :promo (from first string)
->option(‘url’ => ‘../../news’); (for url: http://test.tt://news/……..

J

Router::connect(‘/:promo’,array(‘controller’ => ‘posts’,'action’ => ‘view’),array(‘promo’ => ‘(?!(admin|posts|trees|types)\W+)[a-zA-Z\-_]+’));

Paginator work fine (if you tell him paginator->option(‘url’ => ‘../../$$$$’)
(where $$$$ = $this->passedArgs

No you are right – the trouble with the router hack (above) is that it breaks the pagination helper. If you can live with a controller stub /page/ then you don’t need the router hack.

You can build custom routes to cover every instance but it would be a bit of a job… and I can’t think of an example of the top of my head.

I extended the paginator helper to overload the link method like so:

1
2

5

App::import('Paginator');
class JpaginatorHelper extends PaginatorHelper {
 
var $passedArgs = null;
 
 
/**
 * Extend the paginator helper and manually build the URL
 *
 * @param  string $title Title for the link.
 * @param  mixed $url Url for the action. See Router::url()
 * @param  array $options Options for the link. See #options for list of keys.
 * @return string A link with pagination parameters.
 */
	function link($title, $url = array(), $options = array()) {
		$options = array_merge(array('model' => null, 'escape' => true), $options);
		$model = $options['model'];
		unset($options['model']);
 
		if (!empty($this->options)) {
			$options = array_merge($this->options, $options);
		}
		if (isset($options['url'])) {
			$url = array_merge((array)$options['url'], (array)$url);
			unset($options['url']);
		}
		$url = $this->url($url, true, $model);
		$obj = isset($options['update']) ? 'Ajax' : 'Html';
		$url = array_merge(array('page' => $this->current($model)), $url);
		$url = array_merge(Set::filter($url, true), array_intersect_key($url, array('plugin'=>true)));
 
		$str = '';
 
		foreach($this->passedArgs as $key => $value){
			if(is_numeric($key)){
			$str .= '/' . $value;
			}
		}
 
		$str .= '/page:' . $url['page'];
 
		return $this->{$obj}->link($title, $str, $options);
 
	}
}

Example Usage:

<?php
$jpaginator->passedArgs = $this->passedArgs;
 echo $jpaginator->prev(__('Previous', true));?>
<div class="page-number">	 	
<?php echo $jpaginator->numbers();?>
</div>
<?php echo $jpaginator->next(__('Next', true));?>

Basically it just builds the link normally and appends the page to the end – it will make sense if you compare it with the core pagination helper.

p.s. am working on an updated version of the helper.

troubles strange – View – http://tree.tt:8888/(?!admin|maps|contacts|pieces|sections|users)(.7/)
but Edit/Delete http://tree.tt:8888/posts/edit/7 & delete/7

Couldn’t understand why it’s happened. Look for Router manual and couldn’t found anything nice

(you can use me email for more fast contact if wish

Couldn’t found solution like your Router:connect but for nice paginate url…
