I'm new to CMSMS and taking an older installation through a painful upgrade path to get it to the current version. One of the major changes involves using Smarty 3 for it's templating engine. This change has broken a couple of the existing templates.
The related CMSMS module is called "Product and Inventory Manager" which looks like it's part of "Calguys Module Extensions"
Here's the error message I'm getting:
Syntax Error in template "module_db_tpl:ProductsWithLocation;summary_default" on line 26 "<h2 style="float:left;margin-right:10px;color:"#fff">{$products_path_names.$key parent=$tmp|ltrim:'-1'}</h2>" unexpected "parent" attribute
Here's the entire template that's throwing it:
{if !isset($items)}
{cgerror}<h2>Sorry! There is No material matched the query</h2>{/cgerror}
<p>Please try browsing our <a href="metarial-index">"full catalog" </a>here. </p>

Here's the relevant snip of that template where the error occurs:
{$products_path_names.$key parent=$tmp|ltrim:'-1'}</h2>
From what I understand we're calling a custom function with a name based on products we have in our database. We're sending it an attribute "parent" which it's not expecting. If I remove that attribute the error goes away but the output gets weird.
Short of a magic bullet I think any clues where to look for this function being defined would help me. I'm also baffled by the use of what appears to be ltrim("-1") so any explanation of that would also be nice. Maybe I can replace this line with a longer if block to correct the function call?
Edit - Here's some sample values for the variables:
$products_path_names.$key holds string 'Granite'
$tmp holds string 00017
Thanks!
I more or less solved it. I got rid of the parent attribute entirely and fixed the weird output by changing this line:
{if !$smarty.foreach.default.last}
to
{if $smarty.foreach.default.last != ''}
It was not counting an empty string as false.
Seems to work now.
