For the frontend you can use the controllers in protected/controllers, for the backend you can use a module.

Hi Zaccaria,

I had create as you said but now my doubt is how to use separate layouts for frontend and backend ...

Hi balaji,

What is the purpose of creating layout in backend. Always we need layout only for frontend.

protected/View folder mainly used for front end page design.

Thanks

Actually I wanna develop both frontend and backend so that i have to use different view.Is it possible to create…

Hi,

To my knowledge backend is always database related things. Are you creating views for looking out the database data?

can you just show me your project folder structure… then i can tell you the exact way of doing…

Thanks
