The 4.7.2 Smarty upgrade generates an error when trying to acces the settings page of the Popup Anywhere module (blank page), this is the error:

This means it is not possible to edit Popups or set conditions for popups.

Redownloading the module & replacing the popup_settings.tpl file with the newly downloaded fixes it, since line 7 & 8 no longer contain the ' ' comma's, but the strange thing is that the file version is the same & apparently it was not automatically upgraded when upgrading the website to 4.7.2.
It is fixed now, but perhaps the correct file was not included in the X-Cart upgrade.


---- Edit
It also seems that since 4.7.2, popups will no longer follow the Location configured in the settings of the popup, the will always be located in the upper left corner of the screen, even if the Location is set to "fixed to bottom" or "fixed to right corner". I have no clue on how to fix that.
(even after removing the cache, issue still remains)

This is a bug either in XC or Smarty 3. There is no fix yet provided.

I saw same on multiple 4.7.x installations I did. Must be a bug in the module.

Please, install the last popup-anywhere-4.7.2.tgz module

The stock X-Cart upgrade does not include the popup-anywhere module

As you can see the provided patch works correctly on our updated demo.

Could you help me to localize the problem ?

This is the patch

PHP Code:

Index: modules/XAuth/ext.core.php
--- modules/XAuth/ext.core.php
+++ modules/XAuth/ext.core.php
@@ -147,6 +147,9 @@ function x_tpl_remove_listener($tpl, $event, $callback)
 
 function x_tpl_prefilter($source, &$smarty)
 {
+    if (strpos($smarty->template_resource, 'eval:') === 0) {
+        return $source;
+    }
     return '{if $x_core_started}{xevent name="before" tpl="' . $smarty->template_resource . '"}{/if}'
         . $source
         . '{if $x_core_started}{xevent name="after" tpl="' . $smarty->template_resource . '"}{/if}'; 


It modifies a file from XAuth module. This module is not active, it is not present in cart.
How can this change have an effect on the static pages. The XAuth module has nothing to do with static pages. And if not active and not present in cart how can this work?

You are right. In this case the reason is another module/smarty_filter/template.

Which modules do you use ?

[cflsystems]

I don't know which one can cause it. Just stock XC install.

I have activated all the modules for X-Cart 4.7.2 goldplus
[aim_xcart_4_7_2_goldplus]>update xcart_modules set active='Y';

The problem is disappeared after the patch is applied.

Could you attach your DB to the ticket
https://bt.x-cart.com/view.php?id=44843
?

By the way have you tried this solution ?

aim-server[~/public_html/xcart/4_7_2_goldplus]$ rm  -rf var/cache/ var/templates_c/      

Thank you.

What do you mean "upload database"?
