When you use render() zend will automaticly search for /views/scripts/actionname/actionname.phtml
But, you can use custom locations or you can add directories where zend view has to look for the controllers like this:
PHP Code:
$view->addScriptPath('/path/to/app/views');
$view->addScriptPath('/path/to/custom/');
You can find more about this here:
Zend Framework
I've tried to make the same thing as you are trying now, and it didn't work for me I'm not using the multiple controllers because I wasn't able to render my header and footer.phtml and had no idea how to fix it.
I hope you have more luck or just more skill
