$templatesused - a question

[N9ne]

Say you already have a $templatesused variable in a file, but it's getting very long, can you just add another $templatesused=... etc below it? Would it work?

[filburt1]

No because it's used to cache the templates before including global.php. Any uncached templates must be queried from the database.

(I think)

[N9ne]

I just figured out that you can indeed add another templatesused var, below it, as long as you have $templatesused = ",blah_template,blah,blah";

So basically start with a comma.

[Dpcows]

you need to add a . before the =

So:

$templatesused .= ",blah_template,blah,blah";

PHP Code:

$templatesused = 'foo1,foo2,foo3';
$templatesused .= ',foo3,foo4,foo5'; 


vB3:

PHP Code:

// pre-cache templates used by all actions
$globaltemplates = array(
    'PM',
    'pm_messagelist_userbit',
    'pm_messagelistbit',
    'pm_messagelist_emptyfolder',
    'pm_receipts',
    'pm_receiptsbit',
    'usercpmenu',
    'usercpnav'
);
// pre-cache templates used by specific actions
$actiontemplates = array(
    'editfolders' => array(
        'pm_editfolderbit'
    ),
    'showpm' => array(
        'postbit',
        'postbit_online',
        'postbit_reputation',
        'postbit_buttons',
        'postbit_userinfo',
        'postbit_bbcode_code',
        'postbit_bbcode_html',
        'postbit_bbcode_php',
    )
);

are these "templateused" in the file where they are needed, or are they stored in a extra file which will be included from global.php?

nevertheless i like the new style

I don't makes it more complicated if you don't know PHP very well

[Xenon]

if you don't know php very well you shouldn't play with vb's source code

[filburt1]

Maybe I'm not getting something but wouldn't this be more logical?

PHP Code:

$templateengine->cachetemplates(array("name1", "name2",...)); 


i.e., not storing stuff in variables and then referencing them in a global scope.
