Hi,
Question regarding the override system, In the COWOA mod dir. tree I see an "overrides-writes" dir listed under the same parrent dir. as the "includes" dir.
I assume these are the files to override. However I do not have this dir. in my store, I do have 2 "overrides" folders. 1) "includes/auto_loaders/overrides" and 2) "includes/init_includes/overrides".The question is do I need to upload the files under the "overrides-writes" folder from the mod into one of these dir. ? And if so , witch one? or is it telling me to upload the entire "overrides-writes" dir to my parrent dir. ?

Thank You, Jim

Just ignore the title of the folder and upload the things inside it. Make sure to also upload the includes folder which is in the same directory as the folder in question. Change all template instances inside everything.

upload overrides-writes/admin/ to yourstore.com/admin

upload overrides-writes/includes/ to yourstore.com/includes

[ecmauto]

upload overrides-writes/admin/ to yourstore.com/admin

upload overrides-writes/includes/ to yourstore.com/includes

I'm sorry Steve, I must be dense as a brick, I still don't follow you.
Here in all the place the "overrides" folder appears in my dir. tree.
1) store/admin/includes/auto_loaders/overrides
2) store/admin/includes/init_includes/overrides
3) store/includes/auto_loaders/overrides
4) store/includes/init_icludees/overrides
Don't the files to be overridden need to be placed in a override folder ?

Thanks,Jim

Its ok, its my fault. I'll try explain better.

It doesn't matter where you have folders called "overides". Try and forget about them.

In the mod, there are two folders, includes and overrides-writes.

Everything in includes are totally new files. Everything in overrides-writes either overwrites files or overides them using the template system.

First, upload the includes folder to your root directory, like you would with any other mod installation.

Then, inside overrides-writes, there are two folders, includes and admin.

Upload includes to your root directory, exactly the same way as you did before. Then, upload admin to your root directory.

That's it.

Oh,That makes much more sense. But it does beg gin the question,
What exactly are the "overrides" folders for ?

RTFM

There are readme.txt and install.txt files that explain it in detail. Read them next time it will save you some headaches.

I'm not too sure. Never noticed them before.
