Does smarty have a ternary plugin, to add short/simple conditional statements, like:
(condition) ? value-if-true : value-if-false;

Dwoo has one, the underlying code of which looks fairly complicated (for me) to port to Smarty.


Thanks

I'm not aware of such a feature in Smarty.
If you really want it, you could either write a compiler plugin (I wouldn't know how to begin with that yet, though) or a prefilter that just replaces something like this
Code:
(condition) {?} value-if-true {:} value-if-false {;}

with
Code:
{if (condition)} value-if-true {else}  value-if-false {/if}

The actual resulting Smarty syntax doesn't look that much more complicated though.
