How to point multiple controller url to same URL in codeigniter?

Question

I am working on a back-end Admin Panel using codeigniter and in admin panel there are multiple user roles like Admin, Editor, Manager etc. Now i have created multiple controller for each roles like:

controllers/Admin.php
controllers/Editor.php
controllers/Manager.php

So, URL become like this

www.mysite.com/admin/anyfunction
www.mysite.com/editor/anyfunction
www.mysite.com/manager/anyfunction

But i want these URLs like

www.mysite.com/u/anyfunction
www.mysite.com/u/anyfunction
www.mysite.com/u/anyfunction

Do you want all of the URLs to exactly have the letter 'u' after the website? — coderszx

You need to merge your controllers or have different URLs... — Callombert

You could put a redirect at the top of each controller that checks if the user has the correct role to access that controller, and if not you redirect them to the appropriate controller, for example for Admin.php in your function if($user->editor) {redirect('editor/index')} and if($user->manager) {redirect('manager/index')} Ultimately I'd suggest you find a different structure though that doesn't require all these redirects though — Pacio

In your scenario function names must be different. But having different function names you can just make routes as

$route['u/any-method'] = "admin/any_method";
$route['u/some-other-method'] = "editor/any_method";

URL need to be different to allow Router class to resolve which part of code should be executed. Check here in docs.

   $route['u/(:any)'] = "admin/method";

Is it possible to do like this ? $route['u/(:any)'] = "$_SESSION['role']/method"; $route['u/(:any)'] = "$_SESSION['role']/method";
