Aoe\_TemplateHints
==================

[](#aoe_templatehints)

[![Build Status](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/8bd448d1ead6f151482a561c58ff4d0a61e954e940a514a1bad09676e3651bd3/68747470733a2f2f7472617669732d63692e6f72672f414f4570656f706c652f416f655f54656d706c61746548696e74732e7376673f6272616e63683d6d6173746572)](https://travis-ci.org/AOEpeople/Aoe_TemplateHints)

Aoe\_TemplateHints extends the default Magento "Template Hints" developer functionality by adding more information for each block:

- shows all blocks (and not only the blocks inheriting from Mage\_Core\_Block\_Template),
- show the cache status of blocks (cached, uncached or nested in a cached block),
- add much more useful data depending on the block type (e.g. template file or cms block-id - check the original blog post for a reference),
- cleans up the visual appearance of the template hints,
- can be triggered without changing configuration settings in the backend
- ...and is much more fun to use :)

To show the template hints simply add `?ath=1` to the shop URL after installing this module. (And make sure the request IP is allowed in dev/restrict/allow\_ips)

Please make sure to uninstall/deactivate the module before going live!
