This might be very basic thing to ask but I have this problem.

When using Controller_Template, and you want to exit from an action,

I wrote the following.

$this->template->title = "LOGIN";

$this->template->content = View::forge('users/login');

return false;

This gives me a blank white screen on my browser.

How do I exit from an action and still render the template?

Thanks for your help.

The Controller_Template doesn't use, nor expects, return values.

So simply use "return;" (or if you insist on returning a value, "return null;".

As usual you are a life saver.
Simple "return" seems to be working.

I tried return false, exit and die. All of them returned white screen.

That is because the after() method of the controller does

if ($response === null) ...

to check if anything was returned.

If so it will use that instead of the template, it allows you to return for example a View object and override the template system (for example for an error page that doesn't use the configured page template).
