Removing Controller name from URL in CodeIgniter

Question

Currently in my CI project I have a single controller that handles all things account. Such-as register, login, activation, etc.

My routes work as such...

domain.com/account/login/ or domain.com/account/register/

How can I remove account from the route while also being about to remove the controller from other pages.

I basically want the controller to always be removed. One of my reasons for this is SEO, search engine rank the importunateness of a page based on how deep it is in a website.

The only way I have seem to achieve this is to do some thing like route['activate'] = 'account/activate'; for every single page, which would be a huge hassle.

Answer 1

$route['^(?!other|controllers).*'] = “account/$0″;
