没有正确创建多个参数的网址

Question

I can't seem to get pretty urls to be generated properly. My frontend config is as follows:

'urlManager' => [
    'enablePrettyUrl' => true,
    'showScriptName' => false,
    'rules' => [
        'item/<id:\d+>/<slug>' => 'item/view',
        'category/<id:\d+>/<slug>' => 'category/view',
        '<controller:\w+>/<id:\d+>' => '<controller>/view',
        '<controller:\w+>/<action:\w+>/<id:\d+>' => '<controller>/<action>',
        '<controller:\w+>/<action:\w+>' => '<controller>/<action>',
    ]
],

The following url array:

['item/view', 'id' => 4, 'slug' => 'shark-chomp-socks']

generates the url http://example.com/item/4?slug=shark-chomp-socks instead of http://example.com/item/4/shark-chomp-socks.

If I manually type in the expected url (http://example.com/item/4/shark-chomp-socks), the url resolves correctly without any errors.

How can I get it to generate the url properly?

The rules in my common config were causing the issue. I removed the urlManager entry in common/config/main.php and the urls were created properly. I had this in common/config/main.php:

'urlManager' => [
    'enablePrettyUrl' => true,
    'rules' => [
        '<controller:\w+>/<id:\d+>' => '<controller>/view',
        '<controller:\w+>/<action:\w+>/<id:\d+>' => '<controller>/<action>',
        '<controller:\w+>/<action:\w+>' => '<controller>/<action>',
    ]
],

Since, the frontend/config/main.php is merged into common/config/main.php in my frontend/web/index.php, the rules in frontend were appended to those in common and duplicates removed resulting in the following order:

'rules' => [
    '<controller:\w+>/<id:\d+>' => '<controller>/view',
    '<controller:\w+>/<action:\w+>/<id:\d+>' => '<controller>/<action>',
    '<controller:\w+>/<action:\w+>' => '<controller>/<action>',
    'item/<id:\d+>/<slug>' => 'item/view',
    'category/<id:\d+>/<slug>' => 'category/view',
]

TL;DR: Remove any rules from any config file that is loaded before the one in which your custom rules are.
