Problem with Directory Structure
 

It looks as though Smarty is setup to only use two directory levels, either ./ or /store for example.

We need to be able to do /store/directory however it doesn't seem to be working.

Back tracking the code in various places this example seems to be the standard for parsing directories:

if ($reg_globals) {
if (is_readable("../globals.php"))
require_once "../globals.php";
elseif (is_readable("./globals.php"))
require_once "./globals.php";
}

If this is the case, i think it's a serious design flaw. Has anybody had any problems with this before, and does anybody have suggestions on the most efficient fix.

I back tracked the problem right into the smarty class writing of the template_c files.

Thanks.

Well this is a mess. I changed my smarty settings in smarty.php to include full path information.


define("SMARTY_DIR","/usr/local/home/site/httpdocs/Smarty-2.1.1/");

#
# Smarty object for processing html templates
#
$smarty = new Smarty;

$smarty->template_dir = "/usr/local/home/site/httpdocs/skin1";
$smarty->compile_dir = "/usr/local/home/site/httpdocs/templates_c";
$smarty->config_dir = "/usr/local/home/site/httpdocs/skin1";
$smarty->cache_dir = "/usr/local/home/site/httpdocs/cache";
$smarty->secure_dir = "/usr/local/home/site/httpdocs/skin1";
$smarty->debug_tpl="file:debug_templates.tpl";


Now I've got file references like:

<a href="javascript:document.loginform.submit()"><fon t class="TableLeftElements">Log out </font>[img]/usr/local/home/site/httpdocs/skin1/images/GObouton.gif[/img]

:evil:

Just move your smarty directory as well as templates_c into your store directory, and use ./ and ../

I've done EXTENSIVE modifications and am using Smarty for other areas of our website including a VIP lounge and online learning locker, so that the xcart database can be used for other aspects of the site. I also created our index file in smarty so that we can have a login on the main page.

I have:

index file in ./
store in ./store
learning locker in ./locker
assessment tool in ./locker/assessment

and I can't put the assessment in ./locker because eventually we will have too many of them.

What I ended up doing was creating a second smarty.php, changed all the links and setup the templates to reference ../../skin1. I then had the php files in ./locker/assessment reference this second smarty.
