I am going to develop a module for XOOPS and I am going to use smarty on admin pages.

Can I use smarty in this page ?

I tried with the following code, but the smarty seems didnt loaded. Can somebody tell me how to do this ?




include("admin_header.php");
$table_name = $xoopsDB->prefix("prayer_request");


/// draw the header of administrator
// header and footer defined previosly in /include/cp_functions.php
xoops_cp_header();

/*** administrator content goes here ***/

$smarty = new Smarty();
echo dirname(__FILE__).'/templates/admin_prayer_request.html';
$smarty->display(dirname(__FILE__).'/templates/admin_prayer_request.html');


echo '

';
 print_r($smarty) ; 
 /*** administrator content end here ***/
 
 // draw the footer of administrator 
 xoops_cp_footer();
?>


admin_header.php

include "../../../mainfile.php";
include_once XOOPS_ROOT_PATH."/class/xoopsmodule.php";
include_once XOOPS_ROOT_PATH."/class/smarty/Smarty.class.php";
include XOOPS_ROOT_PATH."/include/cp_functions.php";
if ( $xoopsUser ) {
 $xoopsModule = XoopsModule::getByDirname("myModule");
 if ( !$xoopsUser->isAdmin($xoopsModule->mid()) ) {
 redirect_header(XOOPS_URL."/",3,_NOPERM);
 exit();
 }
} else {
 redirect_header(XOOPS_URL."/",3,_NOPERM);
 exit();
}
if ( file_exists("../language/".$xoopsConfig['language']."/main.php") ) {
 include "../language/".$xoopsConfig['language']."/main.php";
} else {
 include "../language/english/main.php";
}
?>
    

Didn't you find the search button?

Look at this thread to see how smarty can work in modules administration.
