Settings

smarty is a filter composed of several smaller filters:

One can apply any filter individually. For example, if one preferred the original SmartyPants, write {{ post.body|smartypants }}.

One can customize the application and order of smarty filters with the SMARTY_FILTERS setting. By default, the SMARTY_FILTERS setting is:

SMARTY_FILTERS = [
    'smartypants',
    'smartycaps',
]

One can also customize the HTML class of smartycaps with the SMARTY_CAPS_CLASS setting. By default, the SMARTY_CAPS_CLASS setting is:

SMARTY_CAPS_CLASS = 'initialism'
