UBB.threads PHP Forum Software Community Forums Resources and Customizing How Do I? Template Error

Hi All,

I am getting this error message when I click on CONTACT US at the bottom of my forum:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected token "[" in /home/public_html/libs/smarty/sysplugins/smarty_internal_template.php on line 196

Lines from 194 to 204 but don't know what I have to do to correct the error.

// checks if template exists
if (!$this->source->exists) {
throw new SmartyException(
"Unable to load template '{$this->source->type}:{$this->source->name}'" .
($this->_isSubTpl() ? " in '{$this->parent->template_resource}'" : '')
);
}
// disable caching for evaluated code
if ($this->source->handler->recompiled) {
$this->caching = Smarty::CACHING_OFF;
}

I have tis version Forum Software 8.0.0 and PHP Version 8.3.30.

Any help would be appreciated.
