How to change a route in rails 3?

Question

Now I have address like domain/:board_id/:theme_id/ . But I want to create something like domain/:board_name/:theme_id . What shoud I do?

Answer 1

match ':board_name/:them_id' => 'some_controller#index'

Then you can use ActionView helpers:

link_to 'Some link', :board_name => 'some_name', :them_id => 12

You will have the link your_domain/some_name/12

In the controller you can get that parameters as:

params[:them_id]
params[:board_name]
