PHP Templates

[M2E]

Hi there,

I have a website which I use templates for. I now want to add some PHP in the template, and have found that I can create a new template as main.dwt.php and this works fine.

However I can not update the current template like this, as it then dis-associates itself from the other files in the site.

Is there a way I can make my current template PHP compatible?

Thanks..

you can put code inside the .dwt file just fine. Leave it with the .dwt extension.

It is when you create web pages using the template that you then use the .php extension

for example

you have your template main.dwt inside main.dwt you have your php code with appropriate code identifiers <?, <% (asp), etc.

save the file as a template - retaining the name main.dwt

you then create say an index page from the template main.dwt
include any changes you wish - then save the index page as index.php - any code that is in the main.dwt template (outside editable regions) will be automatically included in index.php.



good to go.
