Controller + Single_page = No Go
Permalink
Hi folks,
I've just picked up Concrete5 as my CMS/Framework of choice but there are still some concepts I can't really grok.
I now that some other people have asked quite the same question before but the error message I get seems to be a different response than what they got.
So I have a view and its controller:
1. application/single_pages/products.php
2. application/controllers/single_page/products.php
Their respective code is:
and
I believe the namespacing in the controller page is fine but it seems that the view() method (or whatever other methods I tried) aren't. I get the following error:
Do you folks have any clues about what going on here? I've spent a few hours already on the docs and the forum and I'm getting nowhere.
Help much appreciated, thanks!

When you go to the 'Single Pages' page in the Dashboard, do you see your Products page listed?
If so, have you tried refreshing the page there?

Yes, I did try to refresh it and the general cache.
I experimented further by adding and removing thing and I now know the controller fires.
The issue rather lies in the class definition. Am I missing something in the line:
?
Thanks community

Ok, actually the class definition is fine too and the on_start() method I've added as well.
What triggers the error is the view() method. Am I supposed to reference a core View method and then use it? I've never seen an example where it was made so.
I am still stuck.
Thank you
<?php namespace Application\Controller\SinglePage; use \Concrete\Core\Controller\Controller; class Products extends Controller { function on_start() { echo 'started!'; } }

I've only created single pages for the Dashboard in 5.7, so I'm sort of guessing a bit here, but from looking at how the controllers in /concrete/controllers/single_page are setup, do you need to try extending PageController instead of just Controller?
You are right my friend. It works.
So to make sure your single page and its controller work in C57, you'll need to have something along the following lines:
Controller:
Single Page:
Thank you very much Hewitt. Keep up the good (community) work!

I know very little when it comes to single pages/dashboards in 5.7.
