Here's a proof-of-concept thingy:
class AppController extends Controller {
function render($action = null, $layout = null, $file = null) {
if ($this->viewPath != 'errors') {
$action = '../' .
$this->viewPath.'_'.($action===null?$this->action:
$action);
//$this->log($action);
//die($action);
}
return parent::render($action, $layout, $file);
}
}
This will make, for example, the 'Users' controller's action 'view'
use the template '/views/users_view.ctp'. It will affect ALL
controllers and ALL actions.
I doubt you'd want to go this far though - overriding every controller
seems a bit heavy-handed.
