string

tpl_file

exp_time

This clears the compiled version of the specified template resource, or all compiled template files if one is not specified. If you pass a $compile_id only the compiled template for this specific $compile_id is cleared. If you pass an exp_time, then only compiled templates older than exp_time seconds are cleared, by default all compiled templates are cleared regardless of their age. This function is for advanced use only, not normally needed.

<?php
// clear a specific template resource
$smarty->clearCompiledTemplate('index.tpl');

// clear entire compile directory
$smarty->clearCompiledTemplate();
?>
