                redirect('blog');

Answer 1

To set a flash_session you must do it like this:

$this->session->set_flashdata('item', 'value');

And load the session library

$this->load->library('session');

https://www.codeigniter.com/user_guide/libraries/sessions.html

Try setting

$this->session->keep_flashdata('message');

in the constructor of the controller the user is being redirected to.

Answer 2

在重定向之前，请尝试使用$this->session->set_flashdata设置会话中的Flash消息，而不是$this->flash->success 。

Answer 3

So in the controller you can have in one function :

$flash=1;
redirect(base_url()."blog/".$flash);

And in the target function you can access the $flash value like this :

$flash= $this->uri->segment(3); 
if(!is_numeric($flash))
{
  redirect();       
}else{
   if($flash== 1){

   }
}

I put segment(3) because on your example $flash is after 2 dashes. But if you have for example this link structure : www.mydomain.com/subdomain/home/index/$flash you'll have to use segment(4) .

Hope that helps.
