3.14.4 Plugin Views

Views behave exactly as they do in normal applications. Just place them in the right folder inside of the /app/plugins/[plugin]/views/ folder. For our pizza ordering plugin, we'll need a view for our PizzaOrdersController::index() action, so let's include that as well:

// /app/plugins/pizza/views/pizza_orders/index.ctp:
<h1>Order A Pizza</h1>
<p>Nothing goes better with Cake than a good pizza!</p>
<!-- An order form of some sort might go here....-->
  1. // /app/plugins/pizza/views/pizza_orders/index.ctp:
  2. <h1>Order A Pizza</h1>
  3. <p>Nothing goes better with Cake than a good pizza!</p>
  4. <!-- An order form of some sort might go here....-->
