I´ve been searching and asked in you irc-channel without any answer.

I am building a a CMS and would like to separate my admintemplates and my regular templates.

themes->frontend->secretname
themes->admin->secretname

I have set my templatedir to:
$this->template_dir = CORE_ROOT.'\\themes\\frontend\\'.$theme.'\\';

But how could I add admin to that?

Thanks in advance

when you do a display do something like this
Code:

$this->template_dir = CORE_ROOT . '\\themes\\';

if($admin}
   $smarty->display('admin\\' . $theme . '\\example.tpl');
else
   $smarty->display('frontend\\'. $theme . '\\example.tpl');



How I usually do this though would be
Code:

   $this->template_dir = CORE_ROOT . '\\themes\\' . $theme . '\\';
   if($admin)
      $smarty->display('admin\\example.tpl');
   else
      $smarty->display('frontend\\example.tpl');


So I would have one theme folder, then have 2 subdirectories an admin and then a frontend.

in Smarty.class.php edit var templates_dir = 'themes';

What I recomend is basicly the opposite direction, I figured why create 2 folders instead just create one keep everything organized and because nobody will ever see the template_file names anyway.
What I perfer and recomend is:
themes/stylename/admin/
themes/stylename/ (where front end is)
won't really have to change anything, but create $style_path as a var for the style / theme name.
$style_name = "dark_black_ancient";
$smarty->display($style_name . '/' . 'admin' . '/' . 'template_name.tpl');

But what ever you desire.

then create the folders as master_kaos did.
/themes/admin/style_name/
/themes/frontend/style_name/

But the admin templates should only be called in the admin pages.
so if($admin) shouldn't be needed.
$smarty->display('admin' . '/' . $style_name . '/' . 'template_name.tpl');
