{if} syntax

Hi!
The {if] sentence used in templates is only for testing null variables? For instance, is there any way to use something like this?
{if title == "Homepage"}
Still no list of {} variables, right?
Thanks!

See this link:

It should help, but you're right there isn't a reference of already exported variables.

Thanks. That solves half of my problems
Any way to get modules variables that way? For instance, I would like to get the category field in the News module. $gCms doesn't have that info, $params['category'] also doesn't work. (This is VERY useful to use different templates for each category)
Thanks in advance!

see the post I just posted with the get_template_vars user defined plugin I wrote.
Technically speaking, putting this at the bottom of your content when you have other module tags above it, should give you an idea of the available smarty variables.

See in Summary template:
Code: Select all
{foreach from=$items item=entry}
<div class="NewsSummary">
<div class="NewsSummaryLink">
{$entry->titlelink}
</div>
<div class="NewsSummaryCategory">
{$entry->category}
</div>
.........

Maybe:
{cms_module module="news" category="beer" summarytemplate="sometemplate.tpl"}

Thanks, so this should do it, right?
Code: Select all
$gCms->smarty->get_template_vars('category');
