How to include smarty script with mosaico email

Question

I used to use a name personalisation in civimail with smarty script...

{capture assign=nickname}{contact.nick_name}{/capture} Dear {if $nickname}{contact.nick_name}{else}{contact.sort_name}{/if}

I was testing if this script would render in mosaico 2.x, it seems doesn't work. Is there any workaround? Thanks

Have you turned on SMARTY in civicrm.settings.php? – Pradeep Nayak Jul 24 '19 at 16:57 — Pradeep Nayak, Jul 24 '19 at 16:57
Smarty can be turned on. It won't help with mosaico. – netzih Jul 24 '19 at 17:00 — netzih, Jul 24 '19 at 17:00

As a workaround for the specific example in your post, you can create a custom token. This post explains how using hook_civicrm_tokens and hook_civicrm_tokenValues

I looked into it a while back. Seems mosaico is not compatible with smarty.
