When creating a custom block and using smarty tags, it just displays the text from the smarty tag not the desired information. This still happens when you set the content type to html. Any suggestions?

Re: Custom Blocks

Smarty tags are not supported in custom blocks, only in the theme and templates.

Using a PHP custom block will alow you to make use of defined php variables that are used to fill the smarty tags.

seems to me that lang_totalusers (from the other topic) is just a language variable. Don't have any XOOPS files here atm, so can't help you with that. If it is a smarty variable containing the number of users, try finding where it's defined and use that to display it in a php custom block (might need to include the phpfile).

Where are smarty variables saved? Is there a directory where I can found all the files where they are saved?
