Template Override not working 7 Years, 2 Months ago
Karma: 0  
Hello there,

Joomla allows to override templates of components within the template section in the backend. This way, changes made to the components' template won't be overwritten by updates of the component.
I tried to establish an override for the OS Responsive Image Gallery because I need a small change in the layout, but the Image Gallery won't accept the override. It's still using the original default.php file in components/com_osgallery/views/masonry/tmp instead of the default.php file in templates/mytemplate/html/com_osgallery/masonry folder.

So my question is: Do you actively block template overrides in some way or must this be some kind of bug or misbehaviour on my side?

Thanks a lot and best regards
Volker

Dear Volker

Please in file {your site}//components/com_osgallery/helpers/osGalleryHelperSite.php

find function:
Code:
    protected static function findView($type, $view='default'){


and replace it to:

Code:
protected static function findView($type, $view='default'){
        $template = JFactory::getApplication()->getTemplate();
        $defaultLayout = $view;
        if (strpos($view, ':') !== false) {
            // Get the template and file name from the string
            $temp = explode(':', $view);
            $template = ($temp[0] == '_') ? $template : $temp[0];
            $view = $temp[1];
            $defaultLayout = ($temp[1]) ? $temp[1] : 'default';
        }
        // Build the template and base path for the view
        $tPath = JPATH_THEMES . '/' . $template . '/html/com_osgallery/' . 
            $type . '/' . $view . '.php';
        $cPath = JPATH_BASE . '/components/com_osgallery/views/' . $type . '/tmpl/' . 
            $view . '.php';
        $dPath = JPATH_BASE . '/components/com_osgallery/views/' . $type . '/tmpl/default.php';
        // If the template has a view override use it
        if (file_exists($tPath)) {
            return $tPath;
        } else if (file_exists($cPath)) {
            return $cPath;
        } else if (file_exists($dPath)) {
            return $dPath;
        } else {
            echo "Bad view path, please write to admin";
            exit;
        }
    }


Please backup this file first
