[Solved] Override path for JEM
[Solved] Override path for JEM
6 years 9 months ago - 6 years 9 months ago
I'm working with JEM 2.2.2 with Joomla 3.8.5
Because I have some problems with overrides for JEM, which does not accept those, I checked the forum if someoneelse has similiar problems. I found a solved threat named "Modifications" which described the path to use for the override:

...... copy the 3 php-files in component/com_jem/views/event/tmpl/ to template/gantry5[or similar/html/event/
I thought the target folder should be:
...template/[whatever]/html/com_jem/views/event/tmpl/default.php
for example.
I'm wrong?

yes you are wrong.
take a look here: How to override the output of Joomla Core
Its for Joomla Core but the principle is the same for jem.

Hi Egnarts,
we are both true, because in the article you linked is stated:
".....
The directory structure you need is:
TEMPLATE_NAME/html/EXTENSION_NAME/VIEW_NAME/FILE_NAME.php
For example, if you want to change the way that the 'Article' view displays a com_content article, then you should copy the file at :
PATH_TO_JOOMLA/components/com_content/views/article/tmpl/default.php
to
TEMPLATE_NAME/html/com_content/article/default.php
..."
So in the example of Jojo12 the mention of the EXTENSION_NAME is missing. And in mine the "views" directory is to much.
Nevertheless I'll test it on my test server.
THX a lot for your hint.

I've just tested it. It works!!!!
My question is now: Why cann't the source path and the override path not be the same? In this case why must 'views' and 'tmpl' directories in the override path be omitted? That's a little bit confusing.
But there must be a rest of mystery.

Edit: Just solved.
For the mystery: Ask the Joomla developers
If you want to do an override, did you take a look at JEM-Responsive? Thats a responsive override for JEM.
