FuelPHP Forums

Hi,
I am new to FuelPHP and I am following some tutorials.
I am doing this:

<?php

class Controller_Admin extends Controller_Base
{
    public $template = 'layouts/template';

public function action_index()
    {
        $data["subnav"] = array('index'=> 'active' );
        $this->template->title = 'Dashboard';
        $this->template->content = View::forge('admin/dashboard', $data);
    }
//... etc

And the template contains:

<?php echo View::forge('layouts/partials/sidebar',array('subnav'=>$subnav)); ?>

I need to pass $subnav to the sidebar menu.

I get error "Fuel\Core\PhpErrorException [ Notice ]: Undefined variable: subnav"

I am following some tutorials but I can't find what I am doing wrong.
Controller_Base extends from Controller_Template.
I have read many times already the docs here:
http://fuelphp.com/docs/general/controllers/template.html
and at the part that says "Changing the default template file" it has more or less the same that I have (except for variable initialization)

class Controller_Example extends Controller_Template
{

    public $template = 'template_admin';

    public function action_index()
    {
        $this->template->title = 'Example Page';
        $this->template->content = View::forge('test/index', $data);
    }
}



Any hint? I can't move on.
Thanks a lot. Regards
