The "Important" note is so small that I managed to see it right just after I figured out how to do it myself, which is to send all the view's vars as a model to the partial.

partial('partials/some_partial.phtml', [NULL, ]$this->getVars()); ?>

You have to start with the idea that some mechanisms should already be available since the issue seems pretty common.

@Ari
I agrre i think they should write about using render in the manual, and specify the difference between render & partials and how and when to use them

render seems to be 100% more preferable than partial for my projects. its a shame i wasted hours and complicated my project needlessly by using partials. the only mention i’ve seen for a render function in the reference documentation is for the action helper. zend should mention it in the view helpers section of the reference

@Matthew
I guess i will have to do a culpa mia again, and start reading the manual again with more attention

We even document that unless you’re passing variables to your partial explicitly, you’re taking a big performance hit by using partials, and it’s better to use render().

Was there some reason just doing $this->render(…) was not enough and you needed this?
