|
|
Hiyas,
I'm running into an interesting issue, and I've poured over the forums looking for an answer and have found none.
My site always pulls the main template using fetch() in which I then display between my header and footer templates using display(). I use fetch, so that the template can generate a variable for me based on smarty logic in that template, namely, the variable I use for the generated page's title. On one template, I am trying to generate the title based on options in a config file, thus I am trying to pull the value using the dot-notation form for config vars, however it keeps coming up empty. The strange thing though, is that all calls using the hash-notation work just fine! Here is my code:
Code: |
{config_load file="boards.conf" section=$board scope=global}
{if $cmd == "post"}
{assign var="HWTitle" value="`$HWTemplate.config.BoardName` :: Post"}
....
|
Below that, I am using {#BoardName#} with no trouble at all. What I get out of that is the back-ticks displayed: "`` :: Post"
I was using version 2.4.2, but have just upgraded to 2.5.0, but still no luck. I even moved the $ in and out of the backticks. Is there something I am totally missing here? (If it matters, this is on linux.) |

- backticks where introduced with 2.5.0, you'll have no luck with them in 2.4.2.
- is your php-object called $HTTemplate? no matter how it's called in php the special variable in the template is always called $smarty so maybe you mean:
{assign var="HWTitle" value="`$smarty.config.BoardName` :: Post"}{$HWTitle}'
(with 2.5.0, 2.4.2 does neither know backticks nor the (virtual) $smarty.config-array)
HTH

Hmmm, well changing it to $smarty.config.BoardName worked just fine, *after* I made sure to get 2.5.0 installed -- a blanket copy did not work, and if I had just stopped and thought about it, I could have saved myself some forehead smacking.
It would be nice if using $template_obj.config.whatever would have worked, so that I can have consistancy in my naming scheme.
I'm gonna look at a way to copy the {$smarty} object into a template var name... I'm sure it can be done.
Thanks for the help! |
