Include a template inside another include

Contributors Thanked: 12 kez	Hi; I can easily include one template file: {FILE "plugins/myplug/functions/tpl/master.tpl"} But what if the contents of this file are like this: <!-- IF {FUNIDTXT} == "myfunction" --> {FILE "plugins/myplug/functions/tpl/myfunction.tpl"} <!-- ENDIF --> It looks like the IF statement is interpreted, but instead including another file, the text {FILE "plugins/myplug/functions/tpl/myfunction.tpl"} is returned. Is inability to nest template inclusion an expected thing? I just want to make something like a "subplugin" thing, which generates the master tpl depending on the functions in the system (database).

Hi;

I can easily include one template file:

{FILE "plugins/myplug/functions/tpl/master.tpl"}

But what if the contents of this file are like this:

<!-- IF {FUNIDTXT} == "myfunction" --> 
{FILE "plugins/myplug/functions/tpl/myfunction.tpl"} 
<!-- ENDIF -->

It looks like the IF statement is interpreted, but instead including another file, the text {FILE "plugins/myplug/functions/tpl/myfunction.tpl"} is returned.

Is inability to nest template inclusion an expected thing?

Administrators Thanked: 265 kez	The way FILE works is really simple, so it doesn't look for FILEs within the included FILE. I can make it support nested FILEs for the price of a bit of perfromance (as always). May the Source be with you!

Contributors Thanked: 12 kez	I think it's not neccessary. I have just solved it by just defining a new template in the wrapper function with a filename dependant on subfunction params.
