Using Smarty (template/presentation Framework)

[FR6]

1) Does the TCH servers are configured to support Smarty? (What is Smarty?)

 

2) How do I know where is the location of the Smarty libs? (I have tried with phpinfo but I didnt find anything.)

 

$this->compile_dir = 'c:/XXX/smarty/templates_c';

$this->cache_dir = 'c:/XXX/smarty/cache';

 

 

Thank you.

I looked into this a long time ago and I believe the answers to your question are:

 

1- TCH servers can handle Smarty because it's a PHP templating engine and TCH servers run PHP. But Smarty is not something that is normally pre-installed on a server. You can open a ticket to request, but I have no guess as to what your odds are.

 

2- You can install Smarty on your server as any script and either use php_iniset() - I think that's the function - to set the default include directory or you can change other aspects of your code so the Smarty template engine code is called.

Hello and welcome to the forums!,

 

phpBB uses smarty templating (or at least a form of it) and it works just fine here at TCH
