PHP code in Smarty 3

[valedina]

Hello!
In the previous version of Formtools (and Smarty) I was able to include {php} code in Smarty in order to create custom export templates. Now, this is not possible anymore.
I need to create an export template in which I call a php query with a INNER JOIN between Formtools tables and assign the array to a Smarty variable in order to show the results.
What can I do?

Hi @valedina, try adding the following setting to your /global/config.php file:

$g_use_smarty_bc = true;

https://docs.formtools.org/userdoc/getting_started/config_file/

The {php} option was considered unsafe, so it was removed in Form Tools 3. But you can re-enable it by adding that setting.
