Template include not working after update

[mixx941]

Hi everyone.

 

I just updated our WHMCS to version 3.3.0 (from 3.2.1) and I noticed that our template was not being displayed correctly. I looked into it and the files that we have included into header.tpl no longer seem to be included so the page looked way off. I have added the code from the include files directly into header.tpl for now which works fine, but is anyone else experiencing this issue of the template "include" function not working after an update?

 

The code was like:

 

{include file="head.inc"}
{include file="navbar.js"}

 

...but it doesn't get included anymore.

 

Thanks!

Try using full paths for the file locations eg. /home/username/public_html/head.inc

matt,

 

I had this issue as well and find it very frustrating to use full paths. I did that and it works, but it obviously means that all these paths have to be changed when directories are changed.

 

Any idea what was changed with whmcs that would require this?

I believe it was part of a Smarty security update. It's not a restriction that I've implemented.

Come one generic, after all this time? =P

 

you do {include file=""} and even {include_php file=""} and probably a couple others, but both are very useful.
