Fraenkiman e544ed6d9a Smatry Release 4.4.1 on Feb-2024
Comparing changes: https://github.com/smarty-php/smarty/compare/v4.3.1...v4.4.1

It is noticeable that Smarty 4.3.1 does not officially support PHP 8.3. Is only supported with 4.4.0.

Remark:

During tests with Smarty 4.5.1, it was noticed that the following warning occurs:
Deprecated: Using the unregistered function "function_exists" in a template is deprecated and will be removed in a future version. Use Smarty::registerPlugin to explicitly register a custom modifier.

As of Smarty 5.X.X, templates must be revised again.
The Smarty release 5.0.2 is already officially available. However, integration into FlatPress is not entirely trivial.

# {extends}
`{extends}` tags are used in child templates in template inheritance for
extending parent templates. For details see section of [Template
Inheritance](../../programmers/advanced-features/advanced-features-template-inheritance.md).
- The `{extends}` tag must be on the first line of the template.
- If a child template extends a parent template with the `{extends}`
tag it may contain only `{block}` tags. Any other template content
is ignored.
- Use the syntax for [template resources](../../programmers/resources.md) to extend files
outside the [`$template_dir`](../../programmers/api-variables/variable-template-dir.md) directory.
## Attributes
| Attribute | Required | Description |
|-----------|----------|-------------------------------------------------|
| file | Yes | The name of the template file which is extended |
> **Note**
>
> When extending a variable parent like `{extends file=$parent_file}`,
> make sure you include `$parent_file` in the
> [`$compile_id`](../../programmers/api-variables/variable-compile-id.md). Otherwise, Smarty cannot
> distinguish between different `$parent_file`s.
## Examples
```smarty
{extends file='parent.tpl'}
{extends 'parent.tpl'} {* short-hand *}
```
