Question

I’m new to Symfony2 and i’m following the tutorial on YouTube Tutorial for the Symfony FOSUserBundle (FTW!).

Around min 7.40 or so, it says to add a method called getParent(), in my case

<?php
//src\Monse\UserBundle\UserBundle.php

namespace Monse\UserBundle;

use Symfony\Component\HttpKernel\Bundle\Bundle;

class UserBundle extends Bundle{

    public function getParent(){

        return 'FOSUserBundle';
    }
}

my layout.html.twig looks like this

{# src\Monse\UserBundle\Resources\views\layout.html.twig #}
{% extends '::base.html.twig' %}
{% block body %}
{{block('fos_user_content')}}
{% endblock %}

sadly, it doesn’t work, and i’ve got no idea what i’m doing wrong.
Thank you for your help

Have you enabled your bundles in the kernel?

<?php
// app/AppKernel.php

public function registerBundles()
{
    $bundles = array(
        // ...
        new FOS\UserBundle\FOSUserBundle(),
        new Monse\UserBundle\UserBundle(),
    );
}

EDIT : You could rename your bundle MonseUserBundle to be able to distinguish the parent FOSUserBundle from the bundle that overrides it:

<?php
//src\Monse\UserBundle\MonseUserBundle.php

namespace Monse\UserBundle;

use Symfony\Component\HttpKernel\Bundle\Bundle;

class MonseUserBundle extends Bundle{

    public function getParent(){

        return 'FOSUserBundle';
        }
    }

And now use this:

<?php
    // app/AppKernel.php

    public function registerBundles()
    {
        $bundles = array(
            // ...
            new FOS\UserBundle\FOSUserBundle(),
            new Monse\UserBundle\MonseUserBundle(),
        );
    }
