change layout for admin?

General PHP
1

Is there anyway to check if the controller comes from an admin directory? so i can change the layout in a base controller ?

Yes, sort of. Use AdminController as a base for admin functionality and FrontendController for everything else.

I have used a simple class for Web3CMS


/**

 * Manage Area

 */

class MArea

{

    /**

     * Check whether is backend.

     * @return bool

     */

    public static function backend()

    {

        return (bool)Yii::getPathOfAlias('backend');

    }


    /**

     * Check whether is frontend.

     * @return bool

     */

    public static function frontend()

    {

        return !self::backend();

    }

}

?>

I will commit these days, so you can download and install, but code above is probably self-explanatory.
