mvc include partial cfwheels ColdFusion Error: Could not find the included template

[Kema Akpala]

I'm pretty new to CFWheels and I guess the answer to this question may be pretty obvious but please bare with me. I'm trying to include shared/loginregister as a partial on my layout page but i keep getting this ColdFusion error: Could not find the included template ../../views/home/shared/_loginregister.cfm. Even though i am using an absolute path.

my understanding was that all I had to do was place the partial(_loginregister.cfm) in a shared folder that is in the root view folder as the image shows in the attachment.

then use the code #includePartial(partial="/shared/loginRegister")# to access that page. what i'm hoping to achieve is to be able to submit params to a global controller/ a controller that can be shared amongst the different controllers as the login/register menu option is in the layout page and appears on every page, i'll also be hoping to do this for my cart as well.

here is a snippet of code from my controller, i've currently placed the controller code for this partial in the default Controller.cfc file.

<cffunction name="newUser" access="remote" hint="connects to users database">

    <cfset user = model("user").new() />

    <cfdump var="user"><cfabort>
</cffunction>

here is a snippet of code as it currently stands in my layout page code below:

    <header>
        <nav>
            <div class="relative">
                <div class="social_wrapper absolute">
                    <p>Join Us</p>
                    <a href="##"><span class="facebook sprite"></span></a>
                    <a href="##"><span class="twitter sprite"></span></a>
                    <a href="##"><span class="instagram sprite"></span></a>
                </div>
                <div class="auth_wrapper absolute">
                    <a href="##sign_in">Sign In</a> / <a href="##register">Register</a> <a href=""><span class="caddy sprite"></span> (0)</a>
                    #includePartial(partial="/shared/loginRegister")#
                    <div>
                        <input class="search_input" type="text" name="search" placeholder="I am searching for" value=""><!---
                        ---><button class="search_icon search_btn" type="submit" name="search"></button>
                    </div>
                </div>
            </div>
       </nav>
   </header>

Any information on how to do this would be greatful

Hi Kema,

If _loginRegister.cfm reside in the "/views/home/shared/" folder you can include it like that: #includePartial(partial="/home/shared/loginRegister")#

For absolute path, you have to specify everthing coming after the "views" folder/".

Hope it will help :)

A+

Hi Simon,

I noticed that the issue seems to have been resolved now. i used #includePartial(partial="/shared/loginRegister")# and that resolved my issue as this was what i was using before i have no idea as to why the issue came up in the first place. another issue i'm facing though is how i get my partial to interact with the controller.cfc file. when I submit the partial form it asks me to create a view for the action. any help in this area will be deeply appreciated.

What URL is your form submitting to? You'll need to create a controller and action to handle that.
