Why can't I switch active template in controller
  • class Controller_User_Auth extends \Controller_Base_Template
    {

    // This works
    public $template = "default_template";
    public function before()
    {
    parent::before();

    // This does not work
    $this->template = "cool_new_template";
    }

    Because $template should be a View instance.

    It is the before() method of the Template controller that converts it if a string (= view name) is given instead of a View.

    // this would work
    $this->template = \View::forge("cool_new_template");
