Site not opening after updating module

[pskeeda]

Prestashop Version 1.5.6.2

URL: http://www.commonsealstore.com/store1/

 

I have updated some modules from the modules section in Admin Panel. However after updating the same, my site is not opening, it is throwing the below error

 

Please give urgent solution on this.

Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'SmartyCompilerException' with message 'Syntax Error in template "/home/commonse/public_html/store1/modules/homeslider/views/templates/hook/header.tpl" on line 2 "{addJsDef homeslider_loop=$homeslider.loop}" unknown tag "addJsDef"' in /home/commonse/public_html/store1/tools/smarty/sysplugins/smarty_internal_templatecompilerbase.php:667 Stack trace: #0 /home/commonse/public_html/store1/tools/smarty/sysplugins/smarty_internal_templatecompilerbase.php(453): Smarty_Internal_TemplateCompilerBase->trigger_template_error('unknown tag "ad...', 2) #1 /home/commonse/public_html/store1/tools/smarty/sysplugins/smarty_internal_templateparser.php(2388): Smarty_Internal_TemplateCompilerBase->compileTag('addJsDef', Array) #2 /home/commonse/public_html/store1/tools/smarty/sysplugins/smarty_internal_templateparser.php(3101): Smarty_Internal_Templateparser->yy_r36() #3 /home/commonse/public_html/store1/tools/smarty/sysplugins/smarty_internal_templateparser.php(3201): Smarty_Inte in /home/commonse/public_html/store1/tools/smarty/sysplugins/smarty_internal_templatecompilerbase.php on line 667

Looks like a big mistake by the presta team again... The updated modules do not work in 1.5.6.2, but probably only on 1.6

 

I have several "updated" modules that cannot be configured anymore. I thinlk the only solution for you is to overwrite the modules with old versions (most of them are in the old 1.5.6.2 download), and hope all works again....
