Hello, I'm building a simple web-app for a friend. One of the features is a photo gallery - I have the data structure as a set of galleries, each of which contains a set of photos. A photo may only belong to one gallery - pretty standard stuff. Given that a photo may only exist in the context of a gallery (e.g. you cannot have a photo outside of a gallery), I'd like my URL structure to look something like the following: /admin/galleries/2/photos/create
/admin/galleries/2/photos/17 ...as opposed to... /admin/photos/create
/admin/photos/17 ...etc. I'm still pretty new to both FuelPHP and MVC development in general, so I'm not sure if this is a typical use case or not. How would I go about creating this behavior within FuelPHP? Thanks. EDIT: I should add that I've tried editing routes.php, but have been unsuccessful. I've set up something like the following... 'admin/galleries/:gid/photos' => array('admin/photos/index') ...but I get a 404 when attempting to navigate to /admin/galleries/7/photos

Assuming admin is a module, and you have a controller in there called photos with has an action_index method,

'admin/galleries/:gid/photos' => 'admin/photos/index',

should work just fine. Note that this will not match '/admin/galleries/2/photos/17', as you haven't provided a placeholder for the segment '17'. If you want that, use

'admin/galleries/:gid/photos/(:any)' => 'admin/photos/index/$1',

whatever the contents of $1 is will be passed as the first parameter of your action_index() method.
