Here's what I did to install Smarty:

1) Copied Smarty files into /home/[username]/smarty/
2) Added this piece of code to each of my PHP files:

ini_set( 
  'include_path', 
  ini_get( 'include_path' ) . PATH_SEPARATOR . "/home/[username]/smarty"
);

3) Create templates, templates_c, cache, and configs directories in root directory for each website using Smarty.
