Re: How to override files under pages

The template for the Specials is called from tpl_modules_specials_default.php for the centerbox or tpl_specials_default for the listing page. You can override either of these without touching the main_template_vars.

Thanks for your reply.
Acturally, I already made changes on tpl_modules_specials_default.php and specials_index.php. if I can override, then I don't have to made same changes again in tpl_specials_default.php.
