First, i want to thank you for your work, i am using smarty many years and still happy with it.

I've noticed some inheritance change after 3.1.14. "Children" template files cant access blocks, wich were defined in parents.

Here is an example:

layout.tpl:

Code:
{block name="main"}{/block}


default.tpl:

Code:

{extends file="layout.tpl"}
{block name="some"}
    some block
{/block}


index.tpl:

Code:

{extends file="default.tpl"}
{block name="main"}
    Some block:
    {block name="some"}{/block}
{/block}


So after display the index.tpl in 3.1.14 i have a desired result:

"Some block: some block"

In 3.1.18 (3.1.16 or 15+) block "some" is not seen in child template anymore and i have a:

"Some block: "

It was some sort of hack, that it works before, or else?
What will be in future changes?

Thank you.

The old solution had a lot of ambiguousness depending on template structures and {block} nesting levels.

With {$smarty.block.parent} you can access the parent block.
But there is the restriction that {$smarty.block.parent} does always use the block name of the outermost of the child to look for the parent block.
