Im trying to put my app under /admin on cakephp. And i am trying to configure the admin routing. What im trying to achive is this:
Lets say the page is www.example.com so when the user type www.example.com/admin i want him/her to be redirected to the admin_dashboard.ctp (if it is logged in, otherwise redirect to log-in page). But now the problem is when i type www.example.com/admin it shows an error like:
Action PagesController::admin_index() could not be found
but if i do:
www.example.com/admin/users/dashboard
it is redirected properly.
How can i achieve that? so just by typing /admin to redirect to dashboard??
and another thing is it possible to remove /users/
from url and just display admin/dashboard?
On core.php file i have added the following line:
Configure::write('Routing.prefixes', array('admin'));
And on the routes.php i have these lines :
Router::connect('/', array('controller' => 'users', 'action' => 'dashboard', 'dashboard'));
Router::connect('/pages/*', array('controller' => 'pages', 'action' => 'display'));
/* I added this line for admin routing */
Router::connect('/admin', array('controller' => 'pages', 'action' => 'index', 'admin' => true));
