Re: [SMARTY-DEV] setting up directories

I was confused by the mention of 'web', and a 'url' in the path name, sorry. Most sites I've been on have used: /home/sitename/ as the $HOME directory of shared hosting. Monte Ohrt wrote:

The examples given show that the four directories are not within the document root, only the last file (index.php) is within the document root as it should be. In any event, the documentation wording has been changed to reflect a clearer explanation. These will be on the website upon the 2.6.0 final release.

hmm, I suppose "off the document root" could be interpreted both ways. I'll change that wording. The examples show the files outside of docroot anyways :) On Mon, 2003-08-18 at 09:57, messju mohr wrote:

It says: "The Smarty directories are only accessed by the Smarty library and never accessed directly by the web browser. Therefore to avoid any security concerns, it is recommended to place these directories in a directory <em>off</em> the document root." to me that means <em>not</em> under the document root.

Where does the documentation say that? Ideally they should be outside the docroot. On Mon, 2003-08-18 at 09:47, Dennis Gearon wrote:

The documents on the smarty web page say to put the: 'templates' 'templates_c' 'cache' 'config' In the document root. Are there any security concerns here?
