[php] How to set proper codeigniter base url?

when I had my site on development environment - it was url: testurl.com

Now on production server my codeigniter app's address has to be someurl.com/mysite/

I moved it there, and everytime I'm trying to run some function, example /home/test - it gets me into someurl.com/home/test - which is WRONG.

It has to be someurl.com/mysite/home/test - How to fix it? I did set

$config['base_url'] = someurl.com/mysite/

After declaring the base url in config.php, (note, if you are still getting the same error, check autoload.php)

$config['base_url'] = "http://somesite.com/somedir/";

Check "autoload"

CodeIgniter file structure:

\application\config\autoload.php

And enable on autoload:

$autoload['helper'] = array(**'url',** 'file');

And it works.

I think CodeIgniter 3 recommends to set $config['base_url'] to a full url manually in order to avoid HTTP header injection.

If you are not concerned about it, you can simply add the following lines in your

application/config/config.php

defined('BASE_URL') OR define('BASE_URL', (is_https() ? 'https://' : 'http://') . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . dirname($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']) . '/');
$config['base_url'] = BASE_URL;

In this way you also have BASE_URL constant available in all your project code (including the views) and you don't have to use functions:

config_item('base_url') //returns BASE_URL
$this->config->item('base_url'); //returns BASE_URL

application > config > config.php

search for $config['base_url'] and put your site like "//example.com" (skip protocol)

 $config['base_url'] = "//someurl.com/";

This works for me.

Check

config > config

codeigniter file structure

replace

$config['base_url'] = "your Website url";

with

$config['base_url']  =  "http://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];

$config['base_url'] .= preg_replace('@/+$@', '', dirname($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'])).'/';

Base URL should be absolute, including the protocol:

$config['base_url'] = "http://".$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']."/mysite/";

This configuration will work in both localhost and server.

Don't forget to enable on autoload:

$autoload['helper'] = array('url','file');

Then base_url() will output as below

echo base_url('assets/style.css'); //http://yoursite.com/mysite/assets/style.css

Base url set in CodeIgniter for all url

$config['base_url'] = "http://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']."/";

Change in config.php like this.

$base_url = ((isset($_SERVER['HTTPS']) && $_SERVER['HTTPS'] == "on") ? "https" : "http");
$base_url .= "://". @$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];
$base_url .= str_replace(basename($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']),"",$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']);
$config['base_url'] = $base_url;

If you leave it blank the framework will try to autodetect it since version 2.0.0.

But not in 3.0.0, see here: config.php

$config['base_url'] = "http://".$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']."/project_name/";

this way you config you base_url , then won't worry about in hosting. both works in localhost and server.

Try to add the controller to your index page aswell. Just looked at as similar structure on one of my own site and I hade my base url set to = "somedomain.com/v2/controller"

You may use default base URL path for any server That have to used in config folder > config.php files replace you :

$config['base_url'] = 'index.php';

by this code: $config['base_url'] = "http://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']; $config['base_url'] .= preg_replace('@/+$@','',dirname($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'])).'/';

it's auto found your folder form any server

Well that's very interesting, Here is quick and working code:

index.php

/**
 * Define APP_URL Dynamically
 * Write this at the bottom of index.php
 *
 * Automatic base url
 */
define('APP_URL', ($_SERVER['SERVER_PORT'] == 443 ? 'https' : 'http') . "://{$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']}".str_replace(basename($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']),"",$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'])); 

config.php

/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Base Site URL
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| URL to your CodeIgniter root. Typically this will be your base URL,
| WITH a trailing slash:
|
|   http://example.com/
|
| If this is not set then CodeIgniter will guess the protocol, domain and
| path to your installation.
|
*/
$config['base_url'] = APP_URL;

CodeIgniter ROCKS!!! :)

Do you miss Double quotation marks?

$config['base_url'] = "someurl.com/mysite"

Dynamic Base Url (codeigniter)

Just overwrite the line in config/config.php with the following:

$config['base_url'] = 'http://'.$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].'/';

this is for server nd live site i apply in hostinger.com and its working fine

1st : $config['base_url'] = 'http://yoursitename.com'; (in confing.php)

2) : src="<?=base_url()?>assest/js/wow.min.js" (in view file )

3) : href="<?php echo base_url()?>index.php/Mycontroller/Method" (for url link or method calling )
