Smarty tag {l} - What does it do?

[jumpenjuhosaphat]

I've searched the smarty manual, and searched the smarty forums, but I couldn't find out what use this delimiter has.  The only thing I could find about it is that it is a block delimiter.  Does anyone know?  It's being used in a PHPLD template.

Smart supports custom tags.. the details are here:

Are you talking about when you see the "|" (pipe) character in a smarty tag?

 

Something like:

 

{$smarty.now|date_format}

 

If so, that is a tag modifier. It allows you to format a smarty tag or set a default value.

 

More info on modifiers is available here:

Thanks for the link, there wasn't anything there about the {L}.

 

No, I'm not talking about the pipe character, the character is an "L".  And there is nothing else in the delimiters with it, it's just {l}.

Then it's a custom tag.  I'm sure it'll be defined as a smarty plugin in the php code somewhere.  There is no {l} tag in standard smarty.

 

You can try searching the php code for "register_function"
