For those using Laravel 5 you need to set the namespace for the controller within the sub-directory (Laravel 5 is still in development and changes are happening daily)

To get a folder structure like:

Http
----Controllers
    ----Admin
            PostsController.php
    PostsController.php

namespace Admin\PostsController.php file like so:

<?php namespace App\Http\Controller\Admin;

use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;

class PostsController extends Controller {

    //business logic here
}

Then your route for this is:

$router->get('/', 'Admin\PostsController@index');

And lastly, don't for get to do either composer or artisan dump

composer dump-autoload

or

php artisan dump

1  That is how you can make your app organized   Every route file  web php  api php      is declared in a map   method  in a file    app Providers RouteServiceProvider php   When you mapping a route file you can set a - gt namespace  this- gt namespace  for it  you will see it there among examples   It means that you can create more files to make your project more structured   And set different namespaces for each of them   But I prefer set empty string for the namespace     2  You can set your controllers to rout in a native php way  see the example   Route  resource   users   UserController  class   Route  get   agents    AgentController  class   list   - gt name  agents list      Now you can double click your controller names in your IDE to get there quickly and conveniently

If you re using Laravel 5 3 or above  there s no need to get into so much of complexity like other answers have said  Just use default artisan command to generate a new controller  For eg  if I want to create a User controller in User folder  I would type   php artisan make controller User User   In routes    Route  get   dashboard    User User dashboard      doing just this would be fine and now on localhost dashboard is where the page resides   Hope this helps

For Laravel 5 3 above   php artisan make controller test TestController   This will create the test folder if it does not exist  then creates TestController inside   TestController will look like this     lt  php namespace App Http Controllers test   use Illuminate Http Request  use App Http Controllers Controller   class TestController extends Controller       public function getTest                 return  Yes             You can then register your route this way   Route  get   test   test TestController getTest

I think to keep controllers for Admin and Front in separate folders  the namespace will work well   Please look on the below Laravel directory structure  that works fine for me   app --Http ----Controllers ------Admin --------DashboardController php ------Front --------HomeController php   The routes in  routes web php  file would be as below     All the Front-end controllers routes will work under Front namespace     Route  group   namespace    gt   Front    function          Route  get   home    HomeController index          And for Admin section  it will look like     All the admin routes will go under Admin namespace       All the admin routes will required authentication      so an middleware auth also applied in admin namespace     Route  group   namespace    gt   Admin    function          Route  group   middleware    gt    auth     function                         Route  get        as    gt   home    uses    gt   DashboardController index                                                      Hope this helps
