CMS Made Simple Forums

I'm slowly learning my way around cmsms

Smarty tags is what I am working on now...  where can I use them?

Right now, I want to make a link on a page available just to logged on members.

I went to content/pages/thepage, and in the content wysiwyg editor, I put:

{if $customcontent_loggedin > 0}Download and print the lesson plan here. {else}Students: please log in to print lesson plan.
{/if}

But it breaks the page:  string(121) "Smarty error: [in content:content_en line 5]: syntax error: unidentified token ';' (Smarty_Compiler.class.php, line 1407)"

Do smarty tags not work directly in the content section like that? Do they only work in templates, that's where I used them before, but I thought it would go here on the single page level, no?

Thanks for any help,  Chris

I think you can use this instead:

{ if $ccuser->loggedin() }Download and print the lesson plan here. {else}Students: please log in to print lesson plan.{/if}


smarty tags are ok in the editor but I usually toggle it Off to work with them.

Tried that and get:

string(131) "Smarty error: [in content:content_en line 5]: syntax error: unidentified token ';loggedin()' (Smarty_Compiler.class.php, line 1407)"

So if it should be ok to use it in the content like I did, I'm guessing something is wrong in smarty or my set up?

your WYSIWYG editor is mangling your Smarty tag by converting the ">" to the equivalent HTML code.

from to Turn off your WYSIWYG, or better yet, put this code in your template.

Turn off tiny for GCB and put it in there then call GCB in content of page and you can then use tiny to do page edit...

Got it

Thank you all very much!  That did the trick.
