+Cache Groups {#caching.groups}
+============
+
+You can do more elaborate grouping by setting up `$cache_id` groups.
+This is accomplished by separating each sub-group with a vertical bar
+`|` in the `$cache_id` value. You can have as many sub-groups as you
+like.
+
+-   You can think of cache groups like a directory hierarchy. For
+    instance, a cache group of `'a|b|c'` could be thought of as the
+    directory structure `'/a/b/c/'`.
+
+-   `clearCache(null,'a|b|c')` would be like removing the files
+    `'/a/b/c/*'`. `clearCache(null,'a|b')` would be like removing the
+    files `'/a/b/*'`.
+
+-   If you specify a [`$compile_id`](#variable.compile.id) such as
+    `clearCache(null,'a|b','foo')` it is treated as an appended cache
+    group `'/a/b/c/foo/'`.
+
+-   If you specify a template name such as
+    `clearCache('foo.tpl','a|b|c')` then Smarty will attempt to remove
+    `'/a/b/c/foo.tpl'`.
+
+-   You CANNOT remove a specified template name under multiple cache
+    groups such as `'/a/b/*/foo.tpl'`, the cache grouping works
+    left-to-right ONLY. You will need to group your templates under a
+    single cache group heirarchy to be able to clear them as a group.
+
+Cache grouping should not be confused with your template directory
+heirarchy, the cache grouping has no knowledge of how your templates are
+structured. So for example, if you have a template structure like
+`themes/blue/index.tpl` and you want to be able to clear all the cache
+files for the "blue" theme, you will need to create a cache group
+structure that mimics your template file structure, such as
+`display('themes/blue/index.tpl','themes|blue')`, then clear them with
+`clearCache(null,'themes|blue')`.
+
+
+    <?php
+    require('Smarty.class.php');
+    $smarty = new Smarty;
+
+    $smarty->setCaching(Smarty::CACHING_LIFETIME_CURRENT);
+
+    // clear all caches with 'sports|basketball' as the first two cache_id groups
+    $smarty->clearCache(null,'sports|basketball');
+
+    // clear all caches with "sports" as the first cache_id group. This would
+    // include "sports|basketball", or "sports|(anything)|(anything)|(anything)|..."
+    $smarty->clearCache(null,'sports');
+
+    // clear the foo.tpl cache file with "sports|basketball" as the cache_id
+    $smarty->clearCache('foo.tpl','sports|basketball');
+
+
+    $smarty->display('index.tpl','sports|basketball');
+    ?>
