Hi @M2vH and thanks for your interest in Foil.

First of all start() function does not exists in Foil, so the error message is correct.

If I understand your needs well, this is the code you need:

<?php
// index.php
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

$foil = Foil\Foil::boot([
    'folders' => [ 
        __DIR__ . '/templates',
        __DIR__ . '/partials' 
     ],
    'html_tags_functions' => true
]);

$engine = $foil->engine();
echo $engine->render('my-template');

The file above is the "main" file, this is why I named it "index.php". Also note how I set folders using the full path (assuming that the 2 folders are located in the same folder of index.php).

Now let's see the template code, I named it my-template.php to make clear this is the first template that is rendered.

<?php
// my-template.php
$this->layout('my-layout');
?>

<?php $this->section('partial') ?>
        <?= $this->insert('the-partial') ?>
<?php $this->append();

The main template, defines a layout (that I named my-layout.php) and includes a partial inside a section. The partial that is included (the-partial.php) does not need to define the section again, but just to output the content. In fact, when you use a partial is just like you are doing a copy & paste of the partial content into the template that calls insert().

Yuo should note that require a partial in a section like you did is perfectly fine, but if you want you can include a partial without using any section at all: again a partial is just like a reusable copy and paste.

By the way, according to what said above, the the-partial.php file, can just contain:

<?php // the-partial.php ?>
<div>
    <?= $this->html('img','images/image1.jpg', ['id' => 'uid']) ?>
</div>

Finally, the my-layout.php file:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
    </head>
    <body>
        <div id="partial">
          <?php $this->section('partial') ?>
              <div id="some_div">
              </div>
          <?php $this->stop() ?>
        </div>
    </body>
</html>

the only change I did in your code for layout is that I used stop() instead of append() to end the section, this because when you define sections in layout is always better to use stop() and use append() (or replace()) in the template that uses the layout.

If you ensure that ll the files are in the /templates or /partials folders, the code above works just fine.

I hope this is all clear, feel free to further ask if you need.

Thank you for your quick answer. The stop() function was mentioned in your docs, deleting it did the job.
$this->stop() is mentioned at the end of this chapter http://www.foilphp.it/docs/TEMPLATES/PARTIALS.html . Setting the full path wasn't necessary, Foil found everything, but I will keep it.

You did a brilliant job with this project, I start loving Foil.

Thanks @M2vH.

stop() is valid function, start() is not. But you are right, the wrong start() function is mentioned in the website docs. I already fixed it in the docs files in the repo (see https://github.com/FoilPHP/Foil/blob/master/docs/TEMPLATES/PARTIALS.md) but I forgot to "publish" the change in the website.

Thanks a bunch to pointing that out. I'll fix that soon.
