natasha80 Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 Hi guysI've noticed that in the code of prestashop is prepared for Smarty, i know that smarty is helpful when you want to make changes in layout/design. My question is, how to set up smarty and how to use it so we can change the layout and be able to see the modifications right away. I've downloaded smarty and i tried to set it up but it resulted in failure.Can anyone give me some help with this? Or there are any extension for Dreamweaver that could make my work be easier? Or another software?cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 You don't have to install smarty into your PC, PS comes with smarty required setting... You have to install smarty only if you want to start coding your own script using smarty modules... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Egerton Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 There are some free editors around that should work fine with SmartyPSPADSupports syntax highlighting and clip libraries for smarty, php, html and mysql as well as just about any other language you can think of. TopStyle integration for validation. Context sensitive user definable tools, compilers, and help on a per language basis. and both these are free and will work with Smartycrimsonpapad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Ribamar23,You need to open the .tpl files and check the design view. I used to use this extension for other web applications before, but then I found PSPAD.As viper put it, yeah, its almost the best for editing/creating tpl files.Cheers..Cronos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
