Comments

Template comments are surrounded by asterisks, and that is surrounded by the delimiter tags like so:

::: {.informalexample}

{* this is a comment *}

:::

Smarty comments are NOT displayed in the final output of the template, unlike . These are useful for making internal notes in the templates which no one will see ;-)

{* I am a Smarty comment, I don't exist in the compiled output  *}
<html>
<head>
<title>{$title}</title>
</head>
<body>

{* another single line smarty comment  *}
<!-- HTML comment that is sent to the browser -->

{* this multiline smarty
   comment is
   not sent to browser
*}
