# $php_handling

This tells Smarty how to handle PHP code embedded in the templates. There are four possible settings, the default being `SMARTY_PHP_PASSTHRU`. Note that this does NOT affect php code within `{php}{/php}` tags in the template.

- `SMARTY_PHP_PASSTHRU` - Smarty echos tags as-is.

- `SMARTY_PHP_QUOTE` - Smarty quotes the tags as html entities.

- `SMARTY_PHP_REMOVE` - Smarty removes the tags from the templates.

- `SMARTY_PHP_ALLOW` - Smarty will execute the tags as PHP code.

> Note: Embedding PHP code into templates is highly discouraged. Use custom functions or modifiers instead.
