Here is the @article.html for the Black & White template that ships with Clarify. As you can see, it is a mixture of HTML and PHP. The document content and user settings are all available as PHP objects that can be used to generate the output. For example:

1. PHP is used to print the article title. If a meta title has been set then the meta title is used.
2. The article title is added to the document. This is the title the user sees on the browser page.
3. Article content is printed out using a function from helpers.php.

The following variables are available in the file:

• $article: The article content.
• $userSettings: Settings the user has configured.
• $output_filename: The name of the file that the template output is being saved to.
