This is not possible within Limesurvey.

You might be able to do some redirection via htaccess files, but that has more to do with Apache then Limesurvey.
Help us to help you!
  • Provide your LS version and where it is installed (own server, uni/employer, SaaS hosting, etc.).
  • Always provide a LSS file (not LSQ or LSG).

LimeSurvey being built on Yii, it should be possible to parameter a specific route in the config file:
www.yiiframework.com/doc/guide/1.1/en/to...arameterizing-routes

Be careful: The current plugin system has been built outside of Yii, so it will not work for them (we should do a rewrite of it in the future so plugins will inherit from the Yii classes).

Sorry for diggin an old post. I was searching the forums for this topic.
Are we nowadays able to parametrize Yii framework inside the configuration file yet?
Maybe will happen in 4.x branch?

Yes, since Yii version ....
www.limesurvey.org/manual/Optional_settings#Yii_settings

See the default routes here : github.com/LimeSurvey/LimeSurvey/blob/ma...onfig/routes.php#L25

To find the best way : hack routes.php

When you find the best way : replace admin/index etc ... by null and use anything else for real final admin (i mean
'admin/index' =>null, 'admin/<action:\w+>/sa/<sa:\w+>/*'=>null ....

When you found : it can be great to have a sample on www.limesurvey.org/manual/Optional_settings#Yii_settings :)

Well I tried adding my routes to [ 'rules' ] array inside config.php but nothing happened.
Then I've tried hacking routes.php either, but nothing happened...

Is there any Yii caching? I've tried deleting tmp/runtime content, but nothing happened...

Looks like changes are ignored. And it's debug=2 ... ? I'm lost. :dry:

I never try then unsure ...

But 1st point : are you use url as path or get ? I think it must be path. Maybe with 'showScriptName' => false, ?

Else update route to

//Admin Routes
Code:
$route['totoadmin'] = "admin";
$route['totoadmin/index'] = "admin";
$route['totoadmin/<action:\w+>/sa/<sa:\w+>/*'] = 'admin/<action>/sa/<sa>';
$route['totoadmin/<action:\w+>/<sa:\w+>/*'] = 'admin/<action>/sa/<sa>';
 
//question
$route['totoadmin/labels/<_action:\w+>'] = "admin/labels/index/<_action>";
$route['totoadmin/labels/<_action:\w+>/<_lid:\d+>'] = "admin/labels/index/<_action>/<_lid>";
 
//Expression Manager tests
$route['totoadmin/expressions'] = "admin/expressions/index";
work i can access to index.php/totoadmin/survey/sa/listsurveys for example,

But i can access to index.php/admin/survey/sa/listsurveys too ... :(

urlFormat => 'get' and showScriptName => false

I've tryed getting ls.local/?r=custom but I got unresolved path. (404)
Then /?r=admin got resolved to default :\

Unsure you can with urlFormat => 'get'.

Maybe ask on Yii forum ?
