Module Tpl override

[math_php]

Hi,

 

I was trying to override a tpl from a module. I followed documentation for prestashop 1.5 but does not work :

 

/themes/my_theme/modules/my_module/views/templates/front/my_module.tpl

 

but as I can read in method setTemplate from ModuleFrontController :

public function setTemplate($template)
   {
       if (Tools::file_exists_cache(_PS_THEME_DIR_.'modules/'.$this->module->name.'/'.$template))
           $this->template = _PS_THEME_DIR_.'modules/'.$this->module->name.'/'.$template;
       elseif (Tools::file_exists_cache($this->getTemplatePath().$template))
           $this->template = $this->getTemplatePath().$template;
       else
           throw new PrestaShopException("Template '$template'' not found");
   }

 

This method search theme/mytheme/modules/mymodule.tpl path but not the one in documentation.

 

All of this to say that sometime beware of RTFM
