3.9.3.3 Requesting Elements from a Plugin

If you are using a plugin and wish to use elements from within the plugin, just specify the plugin parameter. If the view is being rendered for a plugin controller/action, it will automatically point to the element for the plugin. If the element doesn't exist in the plugin, it will look in the main APP folder.

<?php echo $this->element('helpbox', array('plugin' => 'pluginname')); ?>
  1. <?php echo $this->element('helpbox', array('plugin' => 'pluginname')); ?>
