Change admin layout in CakePHP

Question

I am working in cakephp, and I have the following two lines in my /app/config/routes.php file:

/**
 * ...and setup admin routing
 */
 Router::connect(\'/admin/:c         


        

Answer 1

Create a app/app_controller.php and put this in:

params['prefix']) && $this->params['prefix'] == 'admin') {
            $this->layout = 'admin';
        } 
    }

}

Don't forget to call parent::beforeFilter(); in your controllers if you use it in other controllers.

Semi related to the question, you don't need the routes defined, you just need to enable Routing.admin config option and set it to admin in the app/config/core.php. (CakePHP 1.2)
