Follow below steps Hope that makes sense.
-- Admin section --
/*content.php -- controller starts here */
class Content extends VCI_Controller {
# Class constructor
function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
$this->load->model('content_model');
}
/*
Add page logic
*/
function edit_page($id = null)
{
$this->_vci_layout('your_layoutname');
$this->load->library('form_validation');
$view_data = array();
//Set the view caption
$view_data['caption'] = "Edit Content";
//Set the validation rules for server side validation
// rule name editcontent should be defined
if($this->form_validation->run('editcontent')) {
//Everything is ok lets update the page data
if($this->content_model->update(trim($id))) {
$this->session->set_flashdata('success', "<li>Page has been edited successfully.</li>");
$this->output->set_header('location:' . base_url() . 'content/manage_content');
} else {
$this->session->set_flashdata('error', "<li>Unknown Error: Unable to edit page.</li>");
$this->output->set_header('location:' . base_url() . 'content/manage_content');
}
} else {
$page = $this->content_model->get_content_page(trim($id));
$view_data["id"] = $page->id;
$view_data["page_title"] = $page->page_title;
$view_data["page_menu_slug"] = $page->page_menu_slug;
$view_data["page_name"] = $page->page_name;
$view_data["page_content"] = $page->page_content;
$view_data["status"] = $page->status;
$this->_vci_view('content_editpage', $view_data);
}
}
/*

*/
function add_page()
{
$this->_vci_layout('your_layoutname');
$this->load->library('form_validation');
$view_data = array();
$view_data['caption'] = "Edit Content";
if($this->form_validation->run('editcontent')) {
// after passing validation rule data to be saved
// editcontent rule must be defined in formvalidations file
//Everything is ok lets update the page data
if($this->content_model->add()) {
$this->session->set_flashdata('success', "<li>Page has been edited successfully.</li>");
$this->output->set_header('location:' . base_url() . 'content/manage_content');
} else {

}
} else {

$view_data["id"] = $page->id;
$view_data["page_title"] = $page->page_title;
$view_data["page_menu_slug"] = $page->page_menu_slug;
$view_data["page_name"] = $page->page_name;
$view_data["page_content"] = $page->page_content;
$view_data["status"] = $page->status;
$this->_vci_view('content_editpage', $view_data);
}
}
}
/**

/*

class Content_model extends CI_Model {

$this->db->insert('content', $data);
return true ;
}
}
/*
Content_model ends here # Admin section changes ends here
*/
-- Add view files also to admin section content_editpage.php
Now go to your routes.php file for front section --
add below line at last --
$route['(:any)'] = 'page/view_usingslug/$1';
This will be for all urls like --- http://yourdomainname/your_slug_name
// create again a controller in front section page.php --
class page extends VCI_Controller {
function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
}
function view_usingslug($slug='')
{
// retrieve the data by slug from content table using any model class and assign result to $view_dat
$this->_vci_view('page',$view_data);
//page.php will be your view file
}
}

Answer 2

Suppose Your URL is
www.example.com/controllername/methodname/menutitle1
or
www.example.com/controllername/methodname/menutitle2
So this is how you handle these pages.
public function method()
{
$menutitle = $this->uri->segment(3);
$query = $this->db->get_where('TableName',array('Menutitle'=>$menutitle))
$data['content'] = $query->row()->page_content;
$this->load->view('common_page',$data);
}
