Configure Helper

For static access you would usually need to include use statements in the files themselves.

You can either replace them with the fully qualified class name, alias the class in your bootstrap:

class_alias('Cake\Core\Configure', 'Configure');

to continue using the 2.x static Configure access in your templates, or you can use the Configure helper and replace the static call with a dynamic one:

$this->loadHelper('Shim.Configure');

Then you access the Configure class this way in any template file directly:

$this->Configure->read($name);
$this->Configure->check($name);
$this->Configure->consume($name);
$this->Configure->readOrFail($name);

TIP

The aliasing approach has the disadvantage that you cannot use another class with that name. In general, it is usually best to move this logic out of the template — at least in some later cleanup step.
