Re: X-Cart 4.4.x/4.5.x (Smarty2 -> Smarty3 update)
@Mark N - 3rd party modules, some of them, use {php} Smarty tag which is deprecated starting with v3.
As an advice, I recommended this before to QT, offer Smarty3 support only starting with v4.5 branch, by default. This will help 3rd party developers and QT customers who would like to update their own modules. Image how is making compatible with Smarty 3 modules in XC 4.1.12 ... especially when those 3rd party developers disappeared and they did not update their own modules for many years.
