Displaying static pages with CViewAction

If you have a few static pages and aren't going to change them very frequently, then it's not worth querying the database and implementing page management for them.

Getting ready

Set up a new application using yiic webapp.

How to do it...

We just need to connect CViewAction to our controller.

class SiteController extends CController
{
   function actions()
   {
      return array(
         'page'=>array(
            'class'=>'CViewAction',
        ),
      );
   }
}

Now, put your pages into protected/views/site/pages, and name them about.php and contact.php.
Now, you can try your pages by typing in the URL http://example.com/index.php?r=site/page&view=contact.
Alternatively, you can type in the URL http://example.com/site/page/view/about, if you have configured clean URLs with a path format.

How it works...

We connect the external action named CViewAction that simply tries to find a view named the same as the $_GET parameter supplied. If it is there, it displays it. If not, then it will give you a 404 not found page.

There's more...

There are some useful CViewAction parameters we can use. These are listed in the following table:
