Key Features: Templates

68 Classifieds uses a powerful template system named "Smarty Templates". With this system it seperates all the php code from the actual template file which allows you to make changes quickly and easily.

Easy to Use and Maintain

Web page designers are not dealing with PHP code syntax, but instead an easy-to-use templating syntax not much different than plain HTML. The templates are a very close representation of the final output, dramatically shortening the design cycle.

With presentation on its own layer, designers can modify or completely redesign it from scratch, all without intervention from the programmer.

Variables

The content of assigned variables can easily be adjusted at display-time with modifiers, such as displaying in all upper-case, html-escaped, formatting dates, truncating text blocks, adding spaces between characters, etc. This is accomplished with no intervention from the programmer which allows you to modify the template and it not get overwritten during upgrades.

As of v3.1 68 Classifieds now includes three free templates for your use. These can be used as is or modified to suit your layout needs. If you do not like these or wish to find others you can do so from our templates section.
