1 or 5 controllers?

I almost always tend towards breaking up large classes/files/methods. I like to be able to see what's going on at a glance. I would need a very good reason to keep that much code together.

@the_fury,
I was going to say Welcome to CI forums, but then I saw your join date. So I'll say a belated Welcome to CI forums :lol:

I think so far I'm going for the spliting the code up. It already has made it easy to find the method I want.

After a whole lot of work and my controllers getting large ( i need to move to break code over to models ) I'm guessing I should be splitting things up.

I have a "Users" controller that basically is handling every aspect of user management.

add /save / edit / view user groups / view user group expirationss / view user lists/ etc

should I break it down into a controller each:

controllers are in an /admin/ sub-folder. So if I break them up instead of:

/install_folder/admin/users/add/
/install_folder/admin/users/edit/1
/install_folder/admin/users/groups/1

it would become:

/install_folder/admin/users_add/
/install_folder/admin/users_edit/1
/install_folder/admin/users_groups/1

more controller files but breaks things up much better.

I make so much more work for myself. Is that the route I should go? Based on this thread
I think so.

Can controllers go two folders deep? then I could do:

/install_folder/admin/users/add/
/install_folder/admin/users/edit/1
/install_folder/admin/users/groups/1

Then all user controllers could be in their own folder.

Thanks in advance and after any thoughts.

From what I just tried do not believe I can go two folders deep in the controller folder.
