Render view Yii2

Question

How do you render a view file in the profile module's index view file. I tried this:

<?=$this->render('/product/product/_search')?>

This is the error I get:

The view file does not exist: C:\OpenServer\domains\zuppermart\frontend\modules\profile\views\product/product/_search.php`

I also tried <?=$this->render('//product/product/_search')?>

And I get this error:

The view file does not exist: C:\OpenServer\domains\zuppermart\frontend\modules\profile\views\profile\modules//product/product/_search.php

What is the actial view path? And from where you are trying to render it? — arogachev, May 19 '15 at 09:22
`C:\OpenServer\domains\zuppermart\frontend\modules\product\views\product\_search.php` this is actual path of search view file — Fuad Ibrahimov, May 19 '15 at 09:27
if your partial view located in same folder with view that calling it, it should called by the name. ex : `= $this->render('_form', ['model' => $model]) ?>` — Ary Wibowo, May 19 '15 at 09:39
my _search.php is located in frontend/modules/product/views/product/ i want to render it in frontend/modules/profile/views/profile/index.php — Fuad Ibrahimov, May 19 '15 at 09:42

According to given paths, it should be like this (absolute path specified via alias):

<?= $this->render('@frontend/modules/product/_search') ?>

But note that you are trying to render view from another module, I think it's better to create widget instead.

in yii2, we can use render like this :

$this->render('contact',['model'=>$model]);

and render partial:

Yii::$app->controller->renderPartial('myview');

A simple solution to this kind views error is to use views base path i.e by using @app/views/: <?=$this->render('@app/views/product/product/_search')?>
