By default codeigniter 3 you will not be able to have sub folder in your default_route
You need to use a MY_Router.php
Located in application > core > MY_Router.php
This will enable you to use sub folder in default_controller in CI3
<?php
class MY_Router extends CI_Router {
protected function _set_default_controller() {
if (empty($this->default_controller)) {
show_error('Unable to determine what should be displayed. A default route has not been specified in the routing file.');
}
// Is the method being specified?
if (sscanf($this->default_controller, '%[^/]/%s', $class, $method) !== 2) {
$method = 'index';
}
// This is what I added, checks if the class is a directory
if( is_dir(APPPATH.'controllers/'.$class) ) {
// Set the class as the directory
$this->set_directory($class);
// $method is the class
$class = $method;
// Re check for slash if method has been set
if (sscanf($method, '%[^/]/%s', $class, $method) !== 2) {
$method = 'index';
}
}
if ( ! file_exists(APPPATH.'controllers/'.$this->directory.ucfirst($class).'.php')) {
// This will trigger 404 later
return;
}
$this->set_class($class);
$this->set_method($method);
// Assign routed segments, index starting from 1
$this->uri->rsegments = array(
1 => $class,
2 => $method
);
log_message('debug', 'No URI present. Default controller set.');
}
}
Then this should let you be able to do
$route['default_controller'] = 'subfolder/controller/function';
The CodeIgniter built-in $route['default_controller'] will not work for sub-folders in your project.
If you want to set the default route for a sub-folder, you should do something like this:
$route['sub_folder'] = "sub_folder/default_contoller";
Doing this, what you are saying to CI is that if someone goes to route:
http://localhost/sub_folder/
will be like
http://localhost/sub_folder/default_controller
