title: Nested layouts in Orchard pages
body: <p>I'm trying to migrate an existing ASP.NET MVC 3 website into Orchard, so I can continue to build the site while taking advantage of the extended features offered by Orchard.  I'm attempting to wrap the entire existing site into an Orchard Module, so I can keep all the existing functionality intact, and continue adding features, or porting old features into the new paradigm as needed.</p>
  
  <p>The main issue I'm having with a straight copy into Orchard is that I've taken advantage of the Layout hierarchy in MVC 3 to specify the same parent layout for related pages, which in turn may have its own parent layout, and so on.</p>
  
  <p>When I copied in my existing views, I get the error that Layout is a read-only property on the custom Orchard WebPageView, but when I change the base view type back to the standard MVC 3 base type, the paths do not match up to my views because of the Module folder structure.</p>
  
  <p>Is the ability to specify nested layouts simply not supported for sites running in Orchard, or is there a built-in work-around that I'm missing?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!
