Smarty Integration With Vbulletin - BETA

This modification will allow you to use Smarty tags in your Vbulletin templates and even allow you to write PHP code in your templates.

I have tested this for the last 3-4 months before I posted it here and am pretty confident that it is all working properly but it should be fully tested on your site before released into production. I am still considering it BETA software.

This does require one small source code edit and there really is no way around it that I can find. There is no hook in the fetch_template() function at this time, so it is required.

After you install the modification, you can enter tags like this in your templates:

Code:

<%



## Whatever smarty code you want



%>

Or for PHP:

Code:

<%php%>

echo "Hello World! The timestamp for now is " . TIMENOW;

<%/php%>

If you find this useful, please:

Using smarty conditionals will definitely make things easier that is for sure..

Yeah, I would like to get some feedback on how this is all working for you..

Smarty - to my knowledge - is the best and most flexible PHP template system. I love it.

Is there anybody who have experience with server performance when running this add-on in vB ?

In my tests, I found it hardly noticeable. It will not improve performance as templates are still evaluated by Vbulletin. It would IMO although help performance if plugins were built around it. You would really not need the plugin system as we know it with this method as you could execute PHP right in the templates (ideally, with includes).

Also, in custom templates, you could in essence eliminate the need for bit templates as Smarty opens up loops which are not available in Vbulletin template conditionals.

yes i did

the file functions.php is in this path right??? /public_html/vb/includes

PHP Code:


		
			
    if ($vbulletin->options['addtemplatename'] AND $gethtmlcomments)

    {

        $templatename = preg_replace('#[^a-z0-9_]#i', '', $templatename);

        return "<!-- BEGIN TEMPLATE: $templatename -->\n$template\n<!-- END TEMPLATE: $templatename -->";

    }############### SMARTY



global $smarty, $tempusagecache;

if (is_object($smarty)) {

$vbulletin->temp_output = $template;

$template = $smarty->fetch('db:'. $templatename . ''); 

}



############### /SMARTY



    return $template;

}
