Have a look at chapter 11 in Structure of Files and Directories in Siena. It explains how you can override any template in your theme. Genoa still exists because some existing sites just don't need any major upgrades or changes so they won't migrate to Siena. May the Source be with you!

The thing about template files in Siena is that they can be in multiple locations. This has the advantage that you can use custom tpl files for extensions (modules or plugins), without overwriting the originals. This makes it possible to easily update an extension's files without the risk of losing your custom templates. Also it allows theme designers to include custom tpls for certain extensions within the theme itself, rather than include seperate tpls which must be copied to extension folders. |

#34631 GHengeveld: Thats what I wanted was the custom tpl files in my own theme folder so I don't have to go edit defaults. Thank you very much.
Trustmaster: thank you very much for that. You guys have very good documention now that ive discovered it and thank you. I'll be taking full advantage of Siena and will work on fully getting my normal template over to Siena. The extra work is worth it. The genoa site i have up can be temporary.
Thanks guys. |
