After some more projects in bolt using twig ive got some other solution.
If you want to use singular slugs multiple times u are forced to create a listing page. But with this you will not have to. Just create an local extension and fill in the part highlighted at the end in this answer.
Link to sourcecode No readme yet. But I hope the explanation here is good enough.
Here is the extension file code (This code is litteraly all the functionality, you will have to create a local extension for this to work ):
class MatchAllController
{
/**
* The bolt application
*
* @var
*/
protected $app;
/**
* The path to the config.yml
*
* @var string
*/
protected $configPath = __DIR__ . '/../../config/config.yml';
public function matchAll(Request $request, $slug, Application $application)
{
$this->app = $application;
// var_dump($this->getConfig());die;
$contentTypes = ['provincies', 'vervolg'];
foreach($contentTypes as $contentType)
{
if(null !== $result = $this->record($request, $contentType, $slug)) {
return $result;
}
}
$this->abort(Response::HTTP_NOT_FOUND, "Page $slug not found.");
return null;
}
protected function getConfig()
{
return Yaml::parse(file_get_contents($this->configPath));
}
public function record(Request $request, $contenttypeslug, $slug = '')
{
$contenttype = $this->getContentType($contenttypeslug);
// Perhaps we don't have a slug. Let's see if we can pick up the 'id', instead.
if (empty($slug)) {
$slug = $request->get('id');
}
$slug = $this->app['slugify']->slugify($slug);
// First, try to get it by slug.
$content = $this->getContent($contenttype['slug'], ['slug' => $slug, 'returnsingle' => true, 'log_not_found' => !is_numeric($slug)]);
if (!$content && is_numeric($slug)) {
// And otherwise try getting it by ID
$content = $this->getContent($contenttype['slug'], ['id' => $slug, 'returnsingle' => true]);
}
// No content, no page!
if (!$content) {
return null;
}
// Then, select which template to use, based on our 'cascading templates rules'
$template = $this->templateChooser()->record($content);
// Setting the canonical URL.
if ($content->isHome() && ($template === $this->getOption('general/homepage_template'))) {
$url = $this->app['resources']->getUrl('rooturl');
} else {
$url = $this->app['resources']->getUrl('rooturl') . ltrim($content->link(), '/');
}
$this->app['resources']->setUrl('canonicalurl', $url);
// Setting the editlink
$this->app['editlink'] = $this->generateUrl('editcontent', ['contenttypeslug' => $contenttype['slug'], 'id' => $content->id]);
$this->app['edittitle'] = $content->getTitle();
// Make sure we can also access it as {{ page.title }} for pages, etc. We set these in the global scope,
// So that they're also available in menu's and templates rendered by extensions.
$globals = [
'record' => $content,
$contenttype['singular_slug'] => $content,
];
return $this->render($template, [], $globals);
}
/**
* Get the contenttype as an array, based on the given slug.
*
* @param string $slug
*
* @return boolean|array
*/
protected function getContentType($slug)
{
return $this->storage()->getContentType($slug);
}
/**

{
return $this->app['storage'];

protected function getContent($textquery, $parameters = [], &$pager = [], $whereparameters = [])
{
return $this->storage()->getContent($textquery, $parameters, $pager, $whereparameters);
}
/**

protected function templateChooser()
{
return $this->app['templatechooser'];
}

protected function generateUrl($name, $params = [], $referenceType = UrlGeneratorInterface::ABSOLUTE_PATH)
{
/** @var UrlGeneratorInterface $generator */
$generator = $this->app['url_generator'];
return $generator->generate($name, $params, $referenceType);
}
/**

Becouse this is an new starting project. The only thing that is variable is this part
public function matchAll(Request $request, $slug, Application $application)
{
$this->app = $application;
//Fill your costum routes in here
$contentTypes = ['VARIABLE SINGULAR SLUG', 'VARIABLE SINGULAR SLUG 2'];
foreach($contentTypes as $contentType)
{
if(null !== $result = $this->record($request, $contentType, $slug)) {
return $result;
}
}
$this->abort(Response::HTTP_NOT_FOUND, "Page $slug not found.");
return null;
}
$contentTypes = ['VARIABLE SINGULAR SLUG', 'VARIABLE SINGULAR SLUG 2'];
This particular piece of code is where u fill in the singular slug u want to use. It can contain infinite slugs
Hope this helps someone else later on. Happy coding!
