# Variables loaded from config files

|
|
Variables that are loaded from the [config files](../config-files.md) are
|
2021-12-03 11:59:22 +01:00
|
|
|
referenced by enclosing them within `#hash_marks#`, or with the smarty
|
2023-02-06 14:42:31 +01:00
|
|
|
variable [`$smarty.config`](language-variables-smarty.md#smartyconfig-languagevariablessmartyconfig). The
|
2021-12-03 11:59:22 +01:00
|
|
|
later syntax is useful for embedding into quoted attribute values, or
|
2023-02-06 14:42:31 +01:00
|
|
|
accessing variable values such as `$smarty.config.$foo`.

|
|
|
Example config file - `foo.conf`:
|
|
|
|
|
```ini
|
|
|
|
|
pageTitle = "This is mine"
|
|
|
|
|
bodyBgColor = '#eeeeee'
|
|
|
|
|
tableBorderSize = 3
|
|
|
|
|
tableBgColor = "#bbbbbb"
|
|
|
|
|
rowBgColor = "#cccccc"
|
|
|
|
|
```

A template demonstrating the

2023-02-06 14:42:31 +01:00
|
|
|
[`$smarty.config`](language-variables-smarty.md#smartyconfig-languagevariablessmartyconfig) method:

```smarty

{config_load file='foo.conf'}
|
|
|

Config file variables cannot be used until after they are loaded in from
|
|
|
|
|
a config file. This procedure is explained later in this document under
|
2023-02-06 14:42:31 +01:00
|
|
|
[`{config_load}`](../language-builtin-functions/language-function-config-load.md).
