What is the error you are getting?

After upgrading to Smarty 4, I'm encountering an unknown tag 'counter' error. The {counter} custom function is not working as expected. The code was previously running on an older version of Smarty without any issues.
Error :
Syntax error in template costcenterlist.tpl - > on line 39

{counter}

" unknown tag 'counter'

And can you show us the code of the template that causes the error?

[CodeEaseWithAnu]

sure{counter} its a tpl file and {counter} is custom function of smarty right? i cant post complete code and $this->_engine->setPluginsDir(array(
$config->paths->base . '/library/Templater/plugins'
));
This is my templater.php code need to add plugin folder here ?

[wisskid]

No, I meant the source code of costcenterlist.tpl

Also, try to use addPluginDir instead of setPluginDir and/or make sure your plugin dir contains the counter plugin file.
