How can i use page_types with its own php file in packages?

Permalink
I need a package that adds a single_page with its own page_type. Unfortunately, the single_page uses the standard-view of the theme and not the page_type.

These are my folder
packages
   rss
      page_types
         rss.php
      single_pages
         rss.php


This here is my code in the controller
public function install() {
   Loader::model('collection_types');
   Loader::model('collection_attributes');
   Loader::model('attribute/categories/collection');
   $pkg = parent::install();
   SinglePage::add('/rss/', $pkg);
   $current = PageTheme::getSiteTheme();
   $theme = CollectionType::getByHandle($current->getThemeHandle());
   if(!$theme || !intval($theme->getCollectionTypeID())){
       $theme = CollectionType::add(array('ctHandle'=>'rss','ctName'=>t('RSS Vorlage')),$pkg);
   }
}


Does anyone know what I mean and can help me?

I'm not sure if I understand your problem correctly but a single page doesn't have a page type. A single pages always uses view.php of your theme.

There's a variable $innerContent in view.php which gets filled with the content of your single page.

Thank you, you understood me correctly.
Is there any chance to assign a different template for a single page?
...and that out of a package?

You can manually call the render method or add a check in view.php and include something different.

These things are a bit ugly though.. I don't think there's a nicer way!

Ok, thanks Remo...i have it.

I put a blank theme in the package and change the render methode like that:
public function view() { 
   $v = View::getInstance();
   $theme = PageTheme::getByHandle('rss');
   $v->setTheme($theme);
   $this->render("rss");
}

Sorry for that, but my final answer is not working.
How can I call the Render method with a new theme?
