Override views.

[nunomaduro]

Hey,

What is the best option to override views ?

Example: Override header, override mail change, etc.

Hello, The best practice in my opinion is to use multiple paths. This is clean and easy way to solve all possible situations.

From docs:

'pathMap' => [
    '@app/views' => [
        '@app/themes/christmas',
        '@app/themes/basic',
    ],
]

In this case, the view will be searched in @app/themes/christmas/site/index.php then if it's not found it will check @app/themes/basic/site/index.php. If there's no view there as well application view will be used.

UPD:

A real example for admin theme

'components' => [
...
'view' => [
    'theme' => [
        'class' => 'vova07\themes\admin\Theme',
            'pathMap' => [
                '@backend/views' => [
                    '@backend/themes/myThemeName/views',
                    '@vova07/themes/admin/views',
                ],
                '@backend/modules' => [
                    '@backend/themes/myThemeName/modules',
                    '@vova07/themes/admin/modules'
                ]
            ]
        ]
    ]
...
]

Hello, I would like to know where to place the controller, model and view generated with crud in yii2-start. Because I have placed in the backend and I mouestra Page Not Found message. Thank you

[vova07]

Hi @caceresvega , You my put them to the default folders. Of course there are missed by default, but you can create them by your self. So models will be placed in backend/models and controllers in backend/controllers directory. All like in advanced template. Yes, and don't forgot to add the URL rule for your new controllers, something like: '<_c>/<_a>' => '<_c>/<_a>' Good luck!

Hi @caceresvega , What is the exact internal error that you got? Check the log file please on the server side, and provide some info about what's going wrong, because without any info I really can't help with anything.

[vova07]

Yes, and if it's possible, please create a new issue for this conversation. It's not related with the current issue. I'll help you there.
