Naming Conventions

Plugin files and functions must follow a very specific naming convention in order to be located by Smarty.

plugin files must be named as follows:

type.name.php

• Where type is one of these plugin types:

  • function

  • modifier

  • block

  • compiler

  • prefilter

  • postfilter

  • outputfilter

  • resource

  • insert

• And name should be a valid identifier; letters, numbers, and underscores only, see php variables.

• Some examples: function.html_select_date.php, resource.db.php, modifier.spacify.php.

plugin functions inside the PHP files must be named as follows:

smarty_type_name

• The meanings of type and name are the same as above.

• An example modifier name foo would be function smarty_modifier_foo().

Smarty will output appropriate error messages if the plugin file it needs is not found, or if the file or the plugin function are named improperly.
