Dashboard Single Page not getting the Dashboard Theme

Permalink
I have a single page in the dashboard called companies located at '/dashboard/companies'. The default view of this page shows a list of companies. When you click on the name of the company, you are taken to the edit screen for that company, located at '/dashboard/companies/edit/{companyId}'.

In my DashboardCompaniesController, I have a method called 'edit'. The code for this method is:
public function edit($companyId) {
      $this->render('dashboard/directory/edit_company');
   }


I have a view setup in the '/single_pages/dashboard/companies' directory called 'edit_company.php'

All of the data is displaying correctly, but the page is receiving the front-end theme, not the dashboard theme. What am I doing wrong?

Try this ...

<?php echo Loader::helper('concrete/dashboard')->getDashboardPaneHeaderWrapper(t('Title goes here'), false, false, false);?>
<div class="ccm-pane-body">


At the top of your view file (it wraps all of the content).
At the bottom, put a closing div.

I had all of the code on the page correct for outputting the dashboard 'floating window' code, but it wasn't displaying the correct theme.

I dug into the code for $this->render(); a bit more and found that you can set the controller's theme just before calling render like so:
public function edit($companyId) {
   Loader::model('company');
   $company = Company::getByID($companyId);
   $this->set('company', $company);
   $this->theme = 'dashboard';
   $this->render('dashboard/company/edit_company');
}
