Re: [SMARTY] Refactoring templates folder

Although unsupported, you can make the templates_dir an array of paths. It is searched in order. So put the common templates (eg: templates/shared) first in the array. Another idea: use a custom resource (eg: shared:foo/bar.tpl) -- it means you have to rewrite your templates -- but only once. You can then simply modify your resource to retarget the template locations. xo boots Eric Mueller wrote: > Hi, I have so many files in my templates/ folder that I'm trying to break it > down into sub-folders. > > I can set the templates directory by changing the $smarty->template_dir > variable, but the problem is my templates all {include} common files > (header.tpl, footer.tpl, that sort of thing). > > Sooo... is there a way to set the template_dir in the template itself, so I > can be sure the common files are loaded from templates/shared, but then the > main template comes in from a different sub-folder under templates/ ? > > thanks, > Eric --------------------------------- How low will we go?
