How to change default flash element?

[thinkingmedia]

CrudView.php is used to render the views, and it's loading BootstrapUI.Flash with default settings.

My app has a custom render element for Flash messages, but it's not being used because of the defaults.

I also noticed BootstrapUI.Flash is loaded twice by the view.

    protected function _setupHelpers()
    {
        $this->loadHelper('Html', ['className' => 'BootstrapUI.Html']);
        $this->loadHelper('Form', [
            'className' => 'BootstrapUI.Form',
            'widgets' => [
               'datetime' => ['CrudView\View\Widget\DateTimeWidget', 'select']
            ]
        ]);
        $this->loadHelper('Flash', ['className' => 'BootstrapUI.Flash']);
        $this->loadHelper('Paginator', ['className' => 'BootstrapUI.Paginator']);

        $this->loadHelper('CrudView.CrudView');
        $this->loadHelper('BootstrapUI.Flash');

        if (Configure::read('CrudView.useAssetCompress')) {
            $this->loadHelper('AssetCompress.AssetCompress');
        }
    }

Any ideas how I can make CrudView use my Template\Element\Flash elements?

So I think I solved my issue. If my approach is the correct way, then please close this issue.

I created my own view called AdminView.php and derived it from CrudView.

I then override the _setupHelpers() method, and just skipped BootstrapUI.Flash as I don't need it.

A quick test appears to have fixed my flash messages.

Here's my view if anyone wants a copy.

<?php
namespace App\View;

use CrudView\View\CrudView;

/**
 * @property \BootstrapUI\View\Helper\FormHelper $Form
 * @property \BootstrapUI\View\Helper\HtmlHelper $Html
 * @property \BootstrapUI\View\Helper\PaginatorHelper $Paginator
 * @property \CrudView\View\Helper\CrudViewHelper $CrudView
 */
class AdminView extends CrudView
{
    /**
     * @var string
     */
    public $layout = 'default';

    /**
     * Setup helpers
     */
    protected function _setupHelpers()
    {
        $this->loadHelper('Html', ['className' => 'BootstrapUI.Html']);
        $this->loadHelper('Form', [
            'className' => 'BootstrapUI.Form',
            'widgets' => [
                'datetime' => ['CrudView\View\Widget\DateTimeWidget', 'select']
            ]
        ]);
        $this->loadHelper('Paginator', ['className' => 'BootstrapUI.Paginator']);
        $this->loadHelper('CrudView.CrudView');
   }
}

This works fine for.
