Friendly URL for ModuleFrontController

[carbotex]

Hi,

 

I'm using Prestashop 1.6 and am trying to create a custom module with custom frontcontroller. I was able to dig around the forum to get it working, however I can't figure out how to create a friendly URL. Currently I have to use this format to access my controller

index.php?fc=module&module=test&controller=display

Is there a way to create friendly-url to something like the following:

/module-test-display

I went to the BO, under SEO and friendly URL, I can't see the page that I created with my custom module. How do I make the my custom module page appear in here?

 

 

Thanks,

Make sure your controller has parameter  

class MyController extends Controller {
 public $php_self = 'yourcontrollername';
}

[vekia]

it should extend other class

class YourModuleNameControllerNameModuleFrontController extends ModuleFrontController{

}

 

 

Is there a way to create friendly-url to something like the following:

it is, under preferences > seo & urls add your new controller and generate friendly-url for it

class YourModuleNameControllerNameModuleFrontController extends ModuleFrontController{

}

I'm using ModuleFrontController, I can access my module with this path. Note fc parameter has to be the last one, otherwise it will not work.

index.php?controller=sampah&module=thxslide&fc=module    <== Works

index.php?fc=module&controller=sampah&module=thxslide    <== 404

How do I add my new controller in order for me to generate friendly-url? When I click the Page dropdown, under the Module Pages section, I do not see my controller?

 

Below is what I have so far, did I miss anything?

 

/modules/thxslide/thxslide.php

<?php
if (!defined('_PS_VERSION_'))
  exit;
 
class ThxSlide extends Module
{
  public function __construct()
  {
    $this->name = 'thxslide';
    $this->tab = 'front_office_features';
    $this->version = '1.0.0';
    $this->author = 'Author';
    $this->need_instance = 0;
    $this->ps_versions_compliancy = array('min' => '1.6', 'max' => _PS_VERSION_); 

    $this->controllers = array('sampah');
    $this->bootstrap = true;
 
    parent::__construct();
 
    $this->displayName = $this->l('THX slide');
    $this->description = $this->l('Description of my module.');
 
    $this->confirmUninstall = $this->l('Are you sure you want to uninstall?');
 
    if (!Configuration::get('thxslide'))      
      $this->warning = $this->l('No name provided');
  }
}

/modules/thxslide/controllers/front/sampah.php

<?php

class ThxSlideSampahModuleFrontController extends ModuleFrontController
{
  
  public $php_self = "Sampah";  


  public function __construct()
  {
    parent::__construct();
    $this->context = Context::getContext();
  }

  /**
   * Initialize sampah controller
   */

  public function init()
  {
    parent::init();
    $this->display_column_left = false; 
    $this->display_column_right = false; 
  }

  /**
   * Set default media for this controller
   */
  public function setMedia()
  {
    parent::setMedia();
    $this->addJS(_THEME_JS_DIR_.'sampah.js');

    $this->addCSS(_THEME_CSS_DIR_.'sampah.css');
  }


  public function initContent()
  {
    parent::initContent();
    
    $this->context->smarty->assign(array(
      'path' => 'sampah',
    ));

    $this->setTemplate('sampah.tpl');
  }
}

Yes, the class was different, it was just an example. 

 

 

Everything should work fine now and you should see your controller in SEO URLs section. If not, try to make that "Sampah" to "sampah"

Thanks Richard,

 

I tried that already, it doesn't make any difference

[carbotex]

Any idea why it is not showing even after I follow the guidelines? Any help will be greatly appreciated ...

Would it be possible if I can get a simple template which is already proven to work on your end? The module zip file would be great.
