How to do it in kohana 3.2?

Answer 1

Probably not the answer you are looking for but Kohana is setup to use pretty urls so what you are trying to do, as already stated, is going backwards but you can setup a specific route like so:

Route::set('seo', '<controller>/<action>.html')
    ->defaults(array(
        'controller' => 'page',
        'action'     => 'index'
    ));

You would still need to specify the controller and action but at least you can have the .html on the end. In the case of this route, you have to use http://domain.com/user/register.html.

If you want to use one route per url, you can also use:

Route::set('seo', 'register.html')
    ->defaults(array(
        'controller' => 'user',
        'action'     => 'register'
    ));

Answer 2

Proper SEO? That seems like you're going in the wrong direction.

But...if you really want to do this...add a route in your bootstrap.php:

Route::set('funny_seo', '<action>.html')
    ->defaults(array(
          'controller' => 'user',
));
