Add custom hook to module without editing the module php file?

[dannyrippon]

Hi,

 

Is there a way to add a new custom hook to a module without having to edit the module php file.

 

If I edit the module php file, each time i upgrade the module my modifications will be deleted overwritten.

 

I have added new hooks to the database and extended the FrontController, but I want to use these hooks with a number of modules but dont want to have to change each of the modules core php file. is there a way of overriding them or does anyone have any other suggestions?

 

Thanks

you can override modules without editing core files...google it

You can add the hook to the database either manually or using your module.

 

Avoid using overrides at all costs.

 

1.4
INSERT INTO `ps_hook` (`name`, `title`, `description`)
		   VALUES ('nameOfHook', 'Name Of Hook', 'It is a custom hook !');

 

Then registerHook

 

Then as require dmodules hook priority.
