Error editing or adding new pages - content blocks missing
Posted: Mon Dec 03, 2012 4:36 pm
I am running version 1.11.3 and recently upgraded from the previous version.
PHP 5.3.10
MySql 5.1.65
I am not sure when this broke as I have been updating without editing pages for a while. I think it worked in 1.11.
When attempting to edit a page or create a new page the first part of the admin panel (menu, crumbtrail) is rendered but the content blocks nor the page options are rendered. Please see the attachement below.
I have looked at the 1.11.3 release notes and it states
Is there a general way to fix this error that has been documented in the forum. I have searched but have only being finding solutions to individual problems and none for a general fix.

I am using code like {assign var='meta_canonical' value=$content_obj->GetURL()} and various other assignments and global variable for language codes etc.Because of the way that CMSMS 1.11.x uses smarty in the admin interface to parse templates for validity and to find content blocks, and because many plugins are not loaded into smarty during admin console requests, some users encountered errors or blank screens when adding/editing content using some templates, or editing some page templates.
This was due to syntax such as {$content_obj→method()} or {cms_lang assign=’nls’} where the {$nls} variable was expected to represent an object. Thanks to the efforts of Tapio, we have solved the issue with blank pages when editing certain page templates, or adding or editing pages using these templates. Tapio researched, tested, and implemented a change to the way we parse templates so that variables such as these are ignored on the admin interface for the purposes of parsing the template for validity. This is an important update, intended to provide stability and performance to CMSMS for quite a while whilst we work on the next great feature release.
