What's up! I'm trying to convert my old codeigniter app to FuelPHP and I want to make my app completely modular. Now I've read through the documentation, but I'm kinda stuck at this points. I have this folder structure: ../modules/navigation
../modules/navigation/controller/navigate.php
../modules/navigation/model/navigation.php
../modules/navigation/views/menu.php This is my controller code:

<?php
/**
* Created by Nick Verheijen
* Date: 12/19/11
* Time: 2:05 PM
*/
namespace Navigation; class Controller_Navigate extends \Controller { public function action_show()
{
echo "test";
} }

I want to load a view in that method, but I dont know how? Since the module has it's own "views" folder. So that's question number one. And my second question is how do i load my module's controller's function into selected template region. This is what i have so far:

$this->template->menu = Request::forge('navigation/navigate/show');

But that does not give me any output at all when echo'ed. Thanks in advance,
Nick

You load module view the same way as views in an app controller, using \View::forge(). Your controller method should return a response object, which can contain anything, but for your case it could contain a view. Something like:

class Controller_Frontend extends \Controller
&#123;
    // fetch a partial
    $partial = \Request::forge('navigation/navigate/show', false)->body();
}

And the module controller:

namespace Navigation;

class Controller_Navigate extends \Controller
&#123;
    public function action_show()
    &#123;
        // return the modules/navigation/views/navview.php view file
        return \Response::forge(\View::forge('navview'));
    }
}
