[Plugin: WP Code Igniter] Using CI models/controllers

    I’ve been looking for a plugin like this! I haven’t installed it yet, but I wanted to ask a question about how it might be used. I have a CI install in place and have been running WP as the view/content system. I use currently pull in some CI views using CURL equivalents to pull in information out of our system with CI.

    I guess the first question is, can I connect to my existing CI installation/models/controllers still and just call the WP view?

    I am assuming I can just pull my view code into a wordpress page? How does the this plugin work with accessing controllers and models?

    Thanks for any help in advance!

    I think (and anyone can correct me if I’m mistaken) the point of this plugin is to use CI as the Models and Controllers, but the Views would be handled by WordPress pages/posts/theme-templates.

    So, I think the CI view files you talk about should be migrated to WordPress pages/posts/theme-template. CI controllers would cease to use this call inside the controller:
    $this->load->view();

    And all the views in the views folder would disappear permanently.

    That is my take. I’d love to hear what others think about what I just wrote. Thanks all.
