CodeIgniter - accessing config variable in view

Question

Pretty often I need to access  config variables in views  I know I can pass them from controller to load- gt view    But it seems excessive to do it explicitly   Is there some way or trick to access  config variable from CI views without disturbing controllers with spare code

Your controller should collect all the information from databases  configs  etc  There are many good reasons to stick to this  One good reason is that this will allow you to change the source of that information quite easily and not have to make any changes to your views

If you are trying to accessing config variable into controller than use    this- gt config- gt item   variable name which you define into config       If you are trying to accessing the config variable into outside the controller helper hooks  then use    mms   get instance       mms- gt config- gt item   variable which you define into config
