Hi. I'm working on upgrading smarty2 code to smarty 3 for months.
The error you're facing is due to functions being renamed and have had parameters changed. For example
| Code: | register_function( etc... )
|
in smarty 2, is now used as
| Code: | registerPlugin( 'function', etc... )
|
You can get a prety comprehensive list of functions that have changed in Smarty 3 if you look inside SmartyBC.class.php (the smarty backwards compatibility class ). Or you can use it instead. |

Thanks a lot for this mate.
Smarty 2 used to work but when changed servers then trying to edit products on the website it would not save to the database in other words it would not make the change or save the edit.
The initial thought was something to do with the PHP upgrades so have been trying to upgrade smarty 2 to 3 ever since with no avail.
FYI, could not find the person who put the site together so I am stuck with an engine that is too foreign to me.
If I could get your email, would you be able to help me sort it mate?
Thanks again. |

Hey there, it works error is gone when I made the following changes you suggested.
| Code: |
include_once "libs/SmartyBC.class.php";
$tpl = new SmartyBC();
|
However, even after this upgrade, I still cannot save an edit or when adding a new product it is not saved into the database.
Weird...it is got to be something else, any ideas, please! |

Hi. Smarty does not handle business logic. However it does handle everything displayed on page, including the html attributes. If you upgraded smarty it is possible that an input receives the wrong "name" attribute. For example, an old input might have been <input name = "user_{$id}" /> which was rendered as <input name = "user_3" />. Since upgrade, it is possible that is now rendered wrongly, like <input name = "user_" /> and it is why it fails to save the data. Check the data you're posting to the page using the code inspector in the browser.
The problem can be caused by a number of things: Smarty didn't just rename functions but also changed the template syntax a bit.
look in here for some answers:
http://www.smarty.net/v3_overview
inside the smarty source there are some upgrade notes:
https://github.com/smarty-php/smarty/blob/master/SMARTY_3.0_BC_NOTES.txt
https://github.com/smarty-php/smarty/blob/master/SMARTY_3.1_NOTES.txt
If you old code didn't extend the smarty class like mine did then your problems are almost certainly caused by legacy templates and custom modifiers |
