Smarty

[Stardog]

I'm trying to insert a simple piece of code into a child template, so I can just change that one file, and re-use it elsewhere. I searched, but didn't find anything.

I have a "mainlayout", and a "firstpage" layout that extends "mainlayout".

mainlayout has "{block name="content"}{/block}" that inserts whatever's in the firstpage.

But I want to insert an ad into "firstpage". If I put "{block name="ad"}{/block}", and create a "ad" template that extends "firstpage" it won't work, nor extending from "mainlayout".

I tried {include file...} but it doesn't work.

Example:

mainlayout.thtml

Only {block} defined in the parent template mainlayout.thtml get extended by child template blocks.

Ahh the include actually worked anyway. I had left a smarty tag in the file I wanted to include by mistake.

Thanks!
