CodeIgniter - When using $route['(:any)'] = 'pages/view/$1' how to use other controllers?

codeigniter, controllers, routes

Solution

As indicated, `$route['(:any)']` will match any URL, so place your other custom routes before the "catch-all" route:

$route['del/(:any)'] = 'crud/del';
// Other routes as needed...
$route['(:any)'] = 'pages/view/$1';

Problem

When using `$route['(:any)'] = 'pages/view/$1';` and I want to use other controllers in my routing for example: ``` $route['del/(:any)'] = 'crud/del'; ``` it won't work. I guess it will use `pages/view/del/$1` and not my crud-controller when deleting an item. How can I solve this?
