Warning

When in production mode, $smarty->force_compile must be set to false, as it will give a 30% boost to your page load time.

On the other hand, when editing a .tpl file, you must delete the /tools/smarty/compile folder (except the index.php file) in order to see your changes applied.

Note that this setting can be made directly from the back-office, in the "Performance" page under the "Advanced parameters" menu.

Keeping things secure

Once your module is online, its files could be accessed by anyone from the Internet. Even if they cannot trigger anything but PHP errors, you might want to prevent this from happening.

You can achieve this by adding a index.php file at the root of any module folder you create. Here is a suggestion for what to put in the file.

Code Block
header("Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT");
header("Last-Modified: ".gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s")." GMT");
header("Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate");
header("Cache-Control: post-check=0, pre-check=0", false);
header("Pragma: no-cache");
header("Location: ../");
exit;
