Hi!

Yes, serendipity 1.1 offers "php-only" templating (also xslt/xml templating). You can read more here:

It is still expermental and the current "default-php" is nto yet 100% converted, but it should be easy for you to achieve that.

However, you can also easily extend the Smarty functionality by creating your own smarty functions/modifiers - do you know that?

Best regards,
Garvin

Hi!

The best way would be by contributing :)

You are the first one apart from Davey who has shown some interest, so maybe you could just download the nightly, have a try and convert some of the remaining templates? :-) :-)

Best regards,
