Note: This post was created awhile back on another platform and I migrated to my current one.
I got this from here: http://news.php.net/php.smarty.dev/2703
Steps to Install Smarty:
1. Download Smarty
2. Extract Smarty
Extract it outside of the www folder (e.g., C:\wamp).
Rename the Smarty.x.x.x folder to smarty.
3. Edit php.ini
To do this, left-click on the WAMP icon in the system tray, under the PHP menu, there should be a php.ini option.
Example configuration:
|

WARNING: Copy-pasting might create errors with single and double quotes. Make sure to type them manually.
4. Restart All Services
Click on the WAMP icon in the system tray and select Restart All Services.
5. Create Required Folders
In your root www folder, create a directory named smarty, and within that folder, create:
templatesconfigs
Outside of www, within C:/wamp/smarty, create:
templates_ccache
Note: There are security concerns for live setups, but for localhost, this is fine. Always use Linux for live testing.
6. Create an HTML File
Inside www or any subfolder within www, create a file (e.g., index.html).
7. Create the Template File
Create index.tpl and place it inside www/smarty/templates.

Note: Blogspot may parse out HTML tags, so some code might not be displayed correctly.
