Hi,

I'm completely new to Laravel, working with it for maybe two or three days on a small/medium project.

I am using the Blade templating engine, and read the Laravel docs on how to use it. So I set

protected $layout = 'layouts.master';

For clarity reasons I know want to change the folder structure of my views/layouts to the following:

views/
-- layouts/
---- admin/
------ admin.blade.php, nav.blade.php, etc.
---- master/
------ master.blade.php, menu.blade.php, footer.blade.php, etc.
...

But as soon as I change the $layout to for example

protected $layout = 'layouts.admin.admin';

I get the following error message:

InvalidArgumentException  
View [layouts.admin] not found.

Same happened when I tried to use

protected $template

instead of

protected $layout

P.S.: Hope I didn't f*ck up the markup :/
