Hi,

Thank you for your helpful articles.

To get my scripts work fine, I needed to change some parts of the example.
And I hope my comment here would help those who are struggling.

I use application.ini for module configuration, and its settings are as follows:

;default module
default.resources.layout.layout = “layout”
default.resources.layout.layoutPath = APPLICATION_PATH “/layouts/scripts/”
^^^^^^^^
;admin module
admin.resources.layout.layout = “adminlayout”
admin.resources.layout.layoutPath = APPLICATION_PATH “/modules/admin/layouts/scripts/”

And I edited some lines of your LayoutLoader script as follows:

//$moduleDir = Zend_Controller_Front::getInstance()->getModuleDirectory();
Zend_Layout::getMvcInstance()->setLayoutPath($layoutPath);

Since the layoutPaths of my configuration are defined with absolute paths, I needed to change the parameter for the setLayoutPath() method.

Best wishes.

[...] on freenode, so I thought I’d explore the idea a bit more. There was this particular idea to use a plugin and a bit of application.ini/xml settings to configure it all. But I’m a bit old school [...]

Hi,

I was pulling the last few hairs out of my head when I stumbled upon this code along with the Module Config one.

I really can’t thank you enough … Your’re awsome

I’d like to suggest resetting the options of all the resources, any thoughts about that?

We would really profit a lot if you could post some Source Code from your implementations.

I cannot get it running having a unique layout for each module, it is always refering to the main module.

I ended up put this in the module.ini:

resources.frontController.plugins.layoutloader = Rexus_Controller_Plugin_RequestedModuleLayoutLoader

and then it finally worked.

Just needed to add:

public function init() {
Zend_Layout::startMvc();
}

to your class to make it work. I guess it can be some other issue, anyway it could be useful to post this.

Thanks, great work with the modules thing for Zend Framework
