{extends} {#language.function.extends}

=========
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
`{extends}` tags are used in child templates in template inheritance for
 | 
						|
extending parent templates. For details see section of [Template
 | 
						|
Inheritance](#advanced.features.template.inheritance).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
-   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](#resources) to extend files
 | 
						|
    outside of the [`$template_dir`](#variable.template.dir) directory.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
> **Note**
 | 
						|
>
 | 
						|
> When extending a variable parent like `{extends file=$parent_file}`,
 | 
						|
> make sure you include `$parent_file` in the
 | 
						|
> [`$compile_id`](#variable.compile.id). Otherwise Smarty cannot
 | 
						|
> distinguish between different `$parent_file`s.
