Firstly, Wordpress has a million lines of code and it's open source. You have to observe their codes from github repo if you have ever never implemented an templating engine as same as Wordpress or any kind of equivalent applications. It's not best practice however you can simply create a new namespace for the view from the app container.

You can boot your namespace definition on AppServiceProvider

app("view")->addNamespace("theme",base_path('themes/'.DEFAULT_TEMPLATE_FOLDER_NAME));

Within this way, you can pass different folders as a view. you have to call your view files via themes:: namespace.

Let's assume you have a default folder in the themes folder as a default template and there is index.blade.php inside of it. You have to call it as a return view('themes::index') in the controller. If DEFAULT_TEMPLATE_FOLDER_NAME changed, the themes:: namespace will point to changed destination due to App Service Provider. It's a simplest version of wordpress-like templating. For the best case, you have to observe different kind of open source projects.
