I hope you can help me, because in codeigniter I have learned a few days. Thank you.

Answer 1

use this.

in config.php

$config['base_url'] = 'https://stackoverflow.com/';
$config['index_page'] = '';
$config['uri_protocol'] = 'AUTO';
$config['url_suffix'] = '';

in .htaccess(out side application folder)

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L] 
</IfModule>

Extra Note

If you need to access the file from inside your views. just use <?php echo base_url();?>. this will gives your URL path.

ex

<link href="<?php echo base_url(); ?>assets/css/bootstrap.css" rel="stylesheet" />

in here folder structurer is

1. application
2. assets
   • css
     1. bootstrap.css
   • js
   • images
3. system
4. .htaccess
5. index.php
