Hey all,
I apologize if there is already a similar plugin posted here, but thought I'd share mine anyway just in case.
How many times do you end up doing this in your site?
| Code: | | You have {$numberOfSomething} thing{if $numberOfSomething != 1}s{/if} |
I know I do that all the time when displaying the number of blog entries, messages, or whatever. It's really lame to just put something(s). I always do the logic, but wanted a cleaner way. Hello plugin!
The plugin I wrote is a modifier, called "plauralize". It works like this:
| Code: | | You have {$numberOfSomething} thing{$numberOfSomething|plauralize} |
This will simply output an "s" if the number is not one. Otherwise, it returns an empty string.
| Code: | <?php
/**
* Smarty plugin
* @package Smarty
* @subpackage plugins
*/
/**
* Smarty plugin
*
* Type: modifier<br>
* Name: plauralizer<br>
* Date: Nov 23 2010
* Purpose: Add an "s" at the end of a word if the number isn't 1
* Example: {$number|plauralize}
* @version 1.0
* @author Sean Boyer <sean@boyercentral.net>
* @param int
* @return string
*/
function smarty_modifier_plauralize($int)
{
if(intval($int) != 1)
return "s";
return "";
}
/* vim: set expandtab: */
?>

Hope that someone finds this useful!
Ciao! |

Thanks for sharing it.
An advanced option could be to support individual chars - not every language use the char "s" as flag for more than one thing  . |
