Smarty variable in controller to a tpl

Question

I created a smarty variable to a controller ( OrderController.php ). The customer select a value and his choice is in this variable. This work perfectly.

Now, I want to use this variable (value) in my back office ( tpl file) to display the value. How can I do this ?

Answer 1

In ordercontroller.php

$smarty->assign("myvar", $myvar); // this assigns the variable to smarty.

Now in your tpl file that you want to display this variable use the syntax.

{$myvar} and it will display the contents of your variable.
