I feel like I'm doing something wrong here... opinions?

I don't really see it as a huge problem. It works and it's DRY. You can render public templates from the admin side of things by prefacing the template names with 'public:', but you'd have to duplicate your controller. If you're really concerned about separating them, you could probably split it into a controller plugin and just call that from both the admin and public controller.

You could use a macro template and just send the form action with it.

Hmm... so I tried this:

<xf:macro template="admin:EWRporta_article_edit" name="edit_block" arg-article="{$article}" />

But I'm getting an error:

Template admin:EWRporta_article_edit: Template admin:EWRporta_article_edit is unknown (src/XF/Template/Templater.php:564)

The template definitely exists, as does the macro, since I am using it in my admin section.

Okay... it looks like you can access public templates from the admin section, but you cant access admin templates from the public section.
