Compatibility with CiviCRM 5.69.2 / Smarty V3

[Detsieber]

Starting with Release 5.69.0, CiviCRM supports the long awaited Smarty3 framework. Currently, Smarty3 support is optional, and can be switched off if extensions are incompatible. However, extensions should be updated soon, as it is announced that Smarty2 support will end during the lifetime of CiviCRM 5.69ESR.

If Smarty3 is activated, CiviCRM produces php errors when trying to access contributions:

There might be more Smarty3 compatibility issues. Hopefully, they are all of the same kind.

I get similar errors with 1.9.2 and Smarty 3 activated:

SmartyException: "Unable to load template 'file:CRM/Sepa/Page/DashBoard.tpl' in 'file:CRM/common/CMSPrint.tpl'"

In a custom extension which gave me the same error I solved doing a "civix upgrade"

[bjendres]

@francescbassas This should be released in 1.10-beta5, have you tried that?

[francescbassas]

Good to know. Not yet. I'm working on the stable release.

[bjendres]

Good to know. Not yet.

Great! If you could test it and tell me that everything works for you, I'll release it as 1.10.0...

[francescbassas]

I just tested with the 1.10.0 and error is gone. Thanks!
