Routing question regarding static and dynamic URL's

posted 10 years ago

I have a real estate site and I want to have URL's for individual properties show up as /community/address so one may be:

http://mysite.com/delasol/12-Main-St/

I created a route that looks like this to test it out:

Route::get('{community}/{address}/', function($community, $address)
{
    echo "<p>Community: $community</p>";
    echo "<p>Address: $address</p>";
});

That does return delasol as the community and then 12-Main-St as the address.

But, what if I want to now have a blog and the URL's would be /blog/title-of-my-article.

My routing is going to make it think that blog is the community and title-of-my-article is the address! I'm new to Laravel and very confused as to how I would make this work.

I think you will have something like this

Route::get('blog/{article}/', function($article)
{
    echo "<p>Article: $article</p>";
});

That works but I'm confused how that would integrate with Wordpress. If I install Wordpress under my /public folder, I don't see how I'm going to get the article to show up.
