I want to create a nested page (path) in a plugin that I created myself, and a controller that is restricted to the scope of that particular nested page.  
I used this page from emberjs as a reference.

```javascript
export default function () {
  this.route('root_path', {path: '/root_path'}, function () {
    this.route('test_nested', {path: '/test_nested'});
  });
}

```

At this time  
templates/root\_path/test\_nested.hbs  
at this time, and it loaded without any problem and was properly displayed in the outlet in root\_path.hbs.

The problem is the corresponding controller.  
I’ve created controllers/root\_path/test\_path.js.es6, but it doesn’t seem to be loading.  
(I have written the following code to test it)

**controllers/root\_path/test\_nested.js.es6**

```javascript
export default Ember.Controller.extend({
  test_num: 0
}

```

**templates/root\_path/test\_nested.hbs**

```plaintext
test
test_num:{{test_num}}

```

**routes/root\_path/test\_nested.js.es6**

```plaintext
I didn't write anything.

```

I thought that the place to put controller of test\_nested is wrong. I’ve tried several places, but they all don’t work.

It would be helpful if you could tell me the appropriate settings.  
If I can’t use a scoped controller, then I’d like to use a root\_path controller.  
(Not an ideal solution, though.)
