Looking for list of variables.

[BigOrange +]

Is there a list posted anywhere with variables that can be used in templates?

Example:
Title: {$title}
Name: {$name}
Address: {$address}

I know, some of themm are obvious but a list sure would be useful when modifying templates. Right now I'm looking throught the code to find them when I need to reference one of them and it is time consuming.

Thanks!

open layout.tpl and type {debug} with the brackets

Go to any page on your website and a popup will appear with a list of variables

The variable change per page so a list would be quite long. The best method you can use would be the debug window.

Just append this to the url: debug=true ie
viewlisting.php?view=1&debug=true

or you can place {debug} within the template and it will initiate the same popup with all the variables and data being passed to that page.

{debug} works for showing the variables. I know variables can change. Maybe what I should have said I am looking for is a list of constants. A list of things I can insert into the template files. I'm sure there is a master list somewhere that the developers like you guys refer to:

Title: {$title}
Name: {$name}
Address: {$address}
? website name
? website url
? things like this

Do others not keep a master list of varible names instead of poping up windows all the time? Does that make any more sense?

Thanks for your help.

Constants are defined in 2 places, one is the language file and you can see a lits of all the names there. The other is in the database table class_admin for things that are set from within admin such as site title, keywords etc.

Nope, no list I work off of.

It might be much easier to just state exactly what you are trying to display and those variables can be listed. It will go a long way if you study the variables availible within the template files, ie keywords, description, etc.

The last one I was looking for was {$smarty.const.URL}.

I can find them as I need them. I just assumed there was a list. Thanks to everyone for pointing me in the right direction.

That one is in the database.
