Hans Dieter Pearcey: Using Regex for that seems weird to me. sub member : Chained(/) Args(1) { my ($self, $c, $id) = @_; ... } hdp.

Charles: hans, This seems to work, although, i'd have to add logic to have this member controller ignore the following types of urls http://websiteurl.com/signup http://websiteurl.com/members/ <= users see this as their url when logged in. -Charles ________________________________ From: Hans Dieter Pearcey To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, April 29, 2009 4:42:08 PM Subject: Re: [Catalyst] website member urls Using Regex for that seems weird to me. sub member : Chained(/) Args(1) { my
John Romkey: Not at all. You just add handlers for those URLs to your controller; they're more specific than the member handler and should match. sub signup : Chained('/') PathPart('signup') Args(0) { ... } Are you sure you want to layout your URLs that way, though? You'll *never* need other top level items that might conflict with user names? If you put all the users under /user (or something like that) then they're in their own namespace and you won't have problems with name conflicts. - john romkey
Charles: John, John, technically, you're correct in that I should consider placing the usernames under /user. But I'm thinking of the fuzzy (to me) usability issues involved and the http://website.com/meme is what hundreds of millions non-developer users have come to expect. Also, fwiw, http://website.com/is the user's profile which is publically viewable while http://website.com/member/ is the users url when they are logged in. Thanks so much for your input. Catalyst Rocks. -Charles Are you sure you
