Re: change action to render on beforeRender()
Just add var like hasRendered, set and check it in beforeRender. Or keep customized views inside subfolders and just alter $this- viewPath in beforeRender. I think it's much better.

Re: change action to render on beforeRender()
Yea, if you could keep the view files in subdirectories instead of giving them different filenames, that would be optimal.

change action to render on beforeRender()
Hi all. I'd like to change the default action to render so as to check
if a customized one exists (so as to render page.eng.ctp instead of
page.ctp. So, if that file exists, I want to render it on
beforeRender(), like so:
function beforeRender() {
$locale = $this-Session-read('Config.language');
$file_path = VIEWS . $this-viewPath . DS .
$this-passedArgs[0] . .
$locale.ctp;
if (file_exists($file_path)) {
$this-render($file_path);
}
}
Te problem is that render() calls beforeRender, and I begin an
infinite loop. Is there another way to replicate the behavior I want?
If not, should we have a render() which doesn't call beforeRender
(again), or an option so as to avoid it?
My quick-and-dirty fix consisted in a duplicated render() function
without that call, but I think a better fix would be great for
CakePHP.
Kind regards,
Eugenio.

Re: change action to render on beforeRender()
IMO, you should follow Cake conventions and use the callbacks the way
they're intended (and are named). If the callback is beforeRender
then obviously you wouldn't want to render from there. Just like if
you tried to force beforeRender code into afterRender, you're
going to run into problems--and confuse other people who look at the
code.
The most obvious solution IMO, would be just to set a controller
property (e.g. $this-viewFile = $file_path), and then call
render($this-viewFile) at the end of each action. You could also
change $this-action to $file_path, but that may have other unintended
consequences. You can also disable autoRender and then do the
rendering in afterFilter(), but that's also breaking conventions and
confusing. Lastly, you could overload the render() function and just
replace it with the code you're putting in beforeRender(), using
parent::render() to call the original render function.
