Take an example:

Code:
$page_details = array(
  // Data loaded somewhere from the database
  'template_file' => 'admin.php',
  ...
);

$smarty->assign('page', $page_details);

...

//******************/
// Now you decide to change the template file
// with some extra calculations, conditions, ...
if($member==4)
{
  $page_detais['template_file'] = 'admin-customized.php';
}
//******************/


...
// Your regular script
$smarty->display($page['template_file']);


For $member=4, the new template file is loaded.
It works good.

Even after a template was assigned earlier, you can change it later on before displaying the contents.
