Most of the active users are moved there. So, feel free to ask your questions.

Very first, you don't need "assign".

You can go as far as
{$v=[]}
{$v= $v + ["Title" => "x"]}
{$v|print_r:true}
{$v.Title}

Which errors, specifically?
And on a side note, your request is strange.
Why don't you do it at the PHP side? You should not write your business logic
in Smarty.
