2.2.0: where to put view files / how to point to them
Development and Programming
Hi!
Some more headaches from my 2.1.3 –> 2.2.0 upgrade.
I have a custom module (all works fine in 2.1.3) that cannot find my custom view files anymore. They’re located in /system/expressionengine/views/{module}/ as they always have been.
My module functions that collect data (to display XML, for instance) throw an error:
Unable to load the requested file: {module}/{view_file}.php
This is how I’ve always loaded my views:
$this->EE->load->view('{module}/{view_file}', $data);I’ve tried setting this, to no avail:
$this->EE->load->add_package_path(APPPATH.'views/{module}/');I must be doing something stupid. Perhaps I overlooked the appropriate line in the changelogs, which I did read.
Any cluestick battery anyone?
Thx… Nico

Excuse me, but why was this thread moved? I think it’s a valid support question.
View files loaded just fine with 2.1.3 and won’t load anymore when upgrading to 2.2.0. My module didn’t change and neither did the location of my view files. Turning on debugging in /index.php does not offer any help.
I have reread the changelog and didn’t find any info. Where is this documented?
All I get is
Unable to load the requested file: …

Forget last moron question. 😊 Support is for installing / using, this neck o’ the woods is for add-on development (which, apparently, is unsupported). 😉
Sorry, just joking… Nico
/system/expressionengine/views/{module}/ worked in 2.1.3. /system/expressionengine/third_party/{module}/views/ works in 2.2.0 (for me it didn’t in 2.1.3, except for CP views).
Moving my view files. Problem solved.
Grtz… Nico
