Default Layout

Configure the default layout and fallback default view with the layoutSettings defaultLayout and defaultView directives.

Default Layout

The default layout in a ColdBox application is layouts/main.cfm by convention. You can change this by using the layoutSettings in your Coldbox.cfc.

//Layout Settings
layoutSettings = {
    defaultLayout = "basic.cfm"
}

Default View

There is no default view in ColdBox, but you can configure one by using the same layoutSettings configuration directive and the defaultView directive:

//Layout Settings
layoutSettings = {
    defaultLayout = "basic.cfm",
    defaultView   = "noview.cfm"
}

This means that if no view is set in the request context, ColdBox will fallback to this view for rendering.
