Laravel define default layout from controller in good way

Question

I googled two hours, but not found answer. Maybe you can help.

When I define in MyController:

class MyController extends Base_Cont         


        

Answer 1

It should be

public $layout = 'layouts.default';

Here's the link Templating - The Basics

Now you can return your layout like this

$view = View::make('entries.index')->with('entries', $entries);
$this->layout->content = $view->render();
