{assign}, {$var=...}

{assign} or {$var=...} is used for assigning template variables during the execution of a template .

Attributes of the {assign} syntax

Attributes of the {$var=...} syntax, option flags.

Note Assignment of variables in-template is essentially placing application logic into the presentation that may be better handled in PHP. Use at your own discretion.

The above example will output:

{ assign var = "name" value = "Bob" nocache } { * or * } { assign "name" "Bob" nocache } { * short-hand, or * } { $name = 'Bob' nocache } The value of $name is { $name } . The above example will output: The value of $name is Bob.

Variables assigned in the included template will be seen in the including template.

The template above includes the example sub_template.tpl below:

You can assign a variable to root of the current root tree. The variable is seen by all templates using the same root tree.

A global variable is seen by all templates.

To access {assign} variables from a php script use getTemplateVars() . Here's the template that creates the variable $foo .

The template variables are only available after/during template execution as in the following script.

The following functions can also optionally assign template variables: {capture} , {include} , {insert} , {counter} , {cycle} , {eval} , {fetch} , {math} and {textformat} .

See also {append} , assign() and getTemplateVars() .

Smarty: Concatenation of variables inside block parameters

In Smarty sometimes you need to concatenate 2 variables and pass it as a single variable inside a block. But the placeholder won't allow any expected PHP syntax

You want to accomplish something like:

But, the dot in smarty is for array access, so, what about...

No. It does not work either. Ah! Let's try a modifier :

Aha! That's the solution!

How to concatenate a variable to a string in smarty?

 @ kyra.strosin 

In Smarty, you can concatenate a variable to a string by using the cat modifier. Here's an example:

In this example, string is the string you want to concatenate the variable to, and variable is the name of the variable you want to concatenate. The cat modifier concatenates the variable to the string.

Here's a more complete example:

In this example, the variable $name is assigned the value "John". The variable $greeting is assigned the value "Hello, ". The cat modifier is used to concatenate the variable $name to the string $greeting , resulting in the value "Hello, John". The variable $message is assigned the concatenated string "Hello, John". Finally, the variable $message is outputted using the {$message} notation, resulting in the output "Hello, John".

Php Smarty template - assigning complex content to variables

In some cases Smarty doesn't allow you to assign values to variables just like that. For example in foreach loops. Then the following solutions can work. 1, Assign a simple text with variables:

explanation: Smarty's smart enough to replace value of variable within quotes.

2, Assign special characters or longer text:

explanation: the capture tag allows you to add text without quotes so it's readable. Variables have to be in {}.

3, Do ternary operation and assign value:

explanation: need to be aware of the brackets, but works fine. Normal brackets contain the condition.

Ternary operator concatenate variables with string (if the parentname is set, concatenate variables to a new string)
