I'm trying to use smarty scope=parent in an assign in an included template. It seems to be working up to a point - I can see the assigned value in the debug window when debug is triggered after the include. But I can't use the actual variable, {$testthing} is empty although it shows as having the correct value in the debug window.

The including template (the parent):
{jrCore_include template=$_scroll.scroll_section_template}
{if $_scroll.scroll_section_template == "testchild.tpl"} 
    {debug}
    testthing is {$testthing}
{/if}

The included testchild.tpl template:
{capture name="testthing_capture" assign="testthing_assigned"}ROCKON{/capture}
{assign var="testthing" value=$testthing_assigned scope="parent"}

Should $testthing be available in the parent template since it's in the debug window? (it is null in the debug window if scope is not set in the assign)
Example 7.11. {assign} in the scope of calling template
http://www.smarty.net/docs/en/language.function.assign.tpl?#idp7975424

Thanks

jrCore_include works a little different then the regular smarty include, as it checks for templates that have been overridden in the ACP. Switch to the regular smarty include and see if it works.

Hope this helps!

Yes, that does work :)

I'm using a skin dir template, so no overrides needed: the perfect solution.

Thanks Brian!

Thanks Steve - I will check this out however and see if I can spot why it's not working with the core jrCore_include - it would be nice if it did.

Thanks!
