I have several controllers that load the same views (besides specific views for each controller).
Is there a way to do it only once ?

Create a template_view, something like this add more if you need them.

<?php $this->load->view(header_view);?>

<?php $this->load->view(body_view);?>

<?php $this->load->view(footer_view);?> 

Controller:

$this->load->vars($data);
$this->load->view('template_view');

$this->load->view(‘body_view’,$data);
?>

You mentioned nothing about data all about views!
Then look into creating a MY_Controller in the CodeIgniter User Guide

This can be used any place in your code and makes the data avaiable to all your views!


$this->load->vars($data);
