Where to put custom code like forms and other php code #21

Great work on this plugin, seems like the only up-to-date Blade implementation for WordPress at the moment. Just one thing that I'm not sure of; you are replacing the normal php templates like single.php with single.blade.php. But where should we put code like custom forms, or other php POST actions and such?

Wouldn't single.php -> Blade->Render('views/single.blade.php') be a more flexible solution?

Nice idéa! My solution is based not to disturb the theme in common. But this I would like to try as a complementary solution. Do you want me to try or do you want to make a pull request?

Well I'm not entirely sure how to implement this. It could be that you had a reason for it working the way it does now. So we'd probably need to discus a good way of creating this functionality then. When this is clear I might be able to make a pull request.

What is required?

For views to be in a separate folder in the theme root directory. Preferably with a default of /views, but changeable via a filter.
Render function for use in php templates of wordpress (like single.php).
... more?

v1.0.8 added support for helper function "bladerunner". It is defined as global to simplyfy usage inside ordinary template. Take a look at the readme: https://github.com/ekandreas/bladerunner#template-helper
