I'm sure I should know the answer to this, but I can't find it:

I have multiple directories in my template path, which will vary on
multiple calls to my script, but there's always a default template
directory. All of them contain a file "index.tpl", so depending on the
template path for any given call to my script I will be targetting a
different index.tpl.

It seems[*] that they all compile to the same file in templates_c, so I
generally get the last compiled version of the wrong template.

How do I fix this?
[*] I'm debugging this remotely and that's the conclusion I've reached;
the site is currently using v2.6.3. If an upgrade will fix it or this
just shouldn't be happening anyway I'll look for other problems in my code.

Hello,

It think you should set a different templates_c directory for each template
directory.

I mean:
$smarty->compile_dir = 'different in every case';

Regards,
Gábor Saliga

If you are not using caching you simply need to set a $compile_id that
is based upon the current template directory that you are using.
http://smarty.php.net/manual/en/variable.compile.id.php

If you are using caching and could possibly have multiple sets of data
displayed from the same template (under the same $compile_id), then you
would add in a custom $cache_id.

This will allow for multiple caches of the same template, but with
different versions.

http://smarty.php.net/manual/en/cach...ple.caches.php

Good luck!

Owen

not really. you can work around the problem by using a distinct
$compile_id regardless of caching. (it works transparently with caching enabled).

nevertheless I'd prefer to use different compile_dirs for different
template_dirs. or just use one template_dir and use
display('subdir1/index.tpl') and display('subdir2/index.tpl') which
are then distinct inside *one* compile_die.
