Layout in Rails 3.0 Release Candidate 1
Reported by Bharat Ruparel | August 26th, 2010 @ 11:55 AM
I am trying to use a different layout than the default application.html.haml in my Rails 3.0 app. as shown below:
class AdminController < ApplicationController
layout "admin"
def instruct
end
...
end
This is my layouts/admin.html.haml file:
- content_for :secondary_nav do
= navigation :second_level_admin
= render :file => "layouts/application"
Then I yield to :secondary_nav in my application.html.haml as shown below:
.....
= yield :secondary_nav
My app/views/admin/instruct.html.haml is rendered with no layout!
The same code works fine in Rails 2.3.8

The kind of bad coding nested layout problem is causing can be seen at the following URLs:
http://github.com/bruparel/file_manager238
http://github.com/bruparel/file_manager3
Layouts for file_manager238 are elegant. They are ugly for file_manager3. Quite possibly this is a function of my ignorance about Rails 3.0.
Please take a look and let me know if this is my problem of Rails 3.0 problem.
Thanks.

I find it a bit confusing. If you do not want to use application.html.erb then why refer to it inside your admin layout. can you extract the part out from application.html.erb that you want to use and use that file (with a different name) inside admin layout.
In short I am suggesting you to try to not to refer to application.html.erb from admin layout.

Neeraj,
the reason I call application.html.haml is because it creates a nested menu effect. Two layer menu or sub-menu if you will. I have examples running on heroku at URL:http://empty-fog-47.heroku.com/
just login as as admin with userid/password as(system/important) and click on the admin tab. You will see why am I calling application.html.haml

@Bharart I am sure whatever is the code inside application.html.haml you can extract it out and call it something like foo.html.haml . And then try using foo partial from admin layout.
Since application.html.haml has special meaning this might solve your problem.

@Neeraj, I already tried it. Didn't work. Maybe I am missing something?
