In Kohana, you can generate SEO-friendly URLs by using the URL::title method to create a URL-safe version of your string and then using the Route class to map it to a specific controller action.


Here is an example to show you how to create a SEO-friendly URL in Kohana:

  1. In your controller action, format the string that you want to use in your URL:$title = URL::title($article->title);
  2. Create a new Route to map the URL to your controller action:Route::set('article', 'articles/<title>', array('title' => '[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+')) ->defaults(array( 'controller' => 'article', 'action' => 'view', ));
  3. In your view, generate the URL using the URL::site method:$url = URL::site('article/' . $title);


This will create a URL like http://example.com/articles/my-article-title for an article with the title "My Article Title".


Note: The Route class uses Regular Expressions to match URLs, so you can customize the pattern to match your needs. In this example, the pattern [a-zA-Z0-9_-]+ matches any combination of letters, numbers, underscores, and hyphens.

It is important to note that generating SEO-friendly URLs is just one aspect of search engine optimization. It is also important to focus on other SEO techniques such as creating high-quality content, using relevant keywords, and optimizing your website's structure and load times.
