Message:

in a smarty template I would like to encrypt a variable using sha256.

with PHP I use

hash('sha256', $var);

In a smarty template I can use

{$var|md5}

and it's working but I don't know how to use sha256...

My Answer:
In a Smarty template, you can use the `|hash` modifier to perform a hash function. To use the SHA256 algorithm, you can pass the algorithm name as a parameter to the `hash` modifier. Here's an example:

smarty
{$var|hash:'sha256'}


This will hash the variable `$var` using the SHA256 algorithm.
