Can't use normal template includes after using commentsInclude()

[danbrellis]

Describe the bug

In a twig template, once the commentsIncludes() function is run, the template path is changed, so trying to include another template afterwards will give a "Unable to find the template" error.

Steps to reproduce

{# blog/_entry.twig #}
{% for comment in commentsQuery.all() %}
    {{ commentsInclude('_includes/comment') }}
{% endfor %}

{{ include('_partials/authorCard') }}

In this situation the authorCard template fails to load. If you follow the trace, in _resolveTemplateInternal() located in /vendor/craftcms/cms/src/web/View.php on line 860 it calls $this->_templatesPath. After using commentsInclude(), the template path is set to the comments plugin template directory.

Craft CMS version

3.7.47

Plugin version

1.9.3

Multi-site?

No

Additional context

The workaround to fix this is to reset the template path following commentsInclude() before calling any other includes:

{# blog/_entry.twig #}
{% for comment in commentsQuery.all() %}
    {{ commentsInclude('_includes/comment') }}
{% endfor %}

{% do view.setTemplatesPath(alias("@templates")) %} {# reset template path #}
{{ include('_partials/authorCard') }}

Ideally, however, the commentsInclude php function (in vendor/comments/src/twigextensions/Extension.php) resets it for us.

Should be fixed for the next release. To get this early, change your verbb/comments requirement in composer.json to:

"require": {
  "verbb/comments": "dev-craft-3 as 1.9.3",
  "...": "..."
}

Then run composer update.

Fixed in 1.9.4
