How to change controller layout in Yii?

Question

Yii

There is a module that uses one theme. The module has a controller for which you need to connect another theme. For this I do

public function init(){
        Yii::app()->theme = 'buble';
        $this->layout = 'buble_main';
        parent::init();
    }

The theme changes, that is, the view for the controller is taken from the 'buble' theme folder, but layuot is not loaded, not at all. How to load the required layout for this controller?

Answer 1

You don’t need to do this in the Internet, it’s enough to specify the property value in the controller class:
If it doesn’t work, then do the same in a specific action + as an option to debug if the layout has changed, it might be worth specifying the full path to it (for example //layouts/buble_main ).

Answer 2

In the controller, as a property, it didn’t help, but right in the action, yes. Thanks
