Modifiers Overview

Modifiers used in order to perform certain transformations with user input prior inserting result into template or generating output.

Variable modifiers can be applied to any variable in a template tag. To apply a modifier, specify the value followed by the | (pipe) and the modifier name. A modifier may accept additional parameters that affect its behaviour. These parameters follow the modifier name and are separated by : (colon) and quoted by double-quotes.

Examples:

{#title|upper#}

{#title|truncate:40:"..."#}

{#title|lower#}

First example uppercases the value of title variable. Second truncates it to 40 characters and add … at the end of string and the third makes the title value lowercased.
