Answer 1

Follow the steps below

Step 1: .htaccess (the one which is at root folder)

Options All -Indexes
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]

Step 2: routes.php add the code below

$route['rtvnews/news/newstitle'] = 'Your controller/method']; //Just a syntax to change the route in codeigniter. You can change the url as per you want.
