title: Extending A Laravel View In A Parent Folder
body: <p>My view folder structure looks like this</p>
  
  <pre><code>+ views
    + user
      -login.blade.php 
    -layout.blade.php
    -header.blade.php
    -footer.blade.php
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I want <code>login.blade.php</code> (which is in the user folder) to extend the <code>layout.blade.php</code> (which is in the views folder) but it is not working. I have tried the following statements but doesn't work::</p>
  
  <pre><code>@extends("views.layout")
  @extends(".views.layout")
  @extends("app.views.layout")
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Can someone tell me what am doing wrong.</p>
  
  <p>thanks</p>
