Override nav.tpl and toolbar.tpl

[AC Luigi]

Hi all,

 

What I want to accomplish is the override of nav.tpl and header.tpl files. I don't have any other solutions available, as what I want to do extends beyond enabling/disabling of menu items. I want do to a proper customization of those two navigation bars. Basically both of those files are located here:

 

admin/themes/default/template/nav.tpl

admin/themes/default/template/header.tpl

 

I've read in a few forum threads online that it is possible to override .tpl files that are actually in the controller directories, but since my two examples are not in that location, I'm wondering how to accomplish this task.

 

Any ideas on this matter would be appreciated.

Of, found an answer in the official documentation where it states the following:

 

As there is no inheritance, there is no way to override a view. In order to change a view, you must rewrite the template file, and place it in your theme/module's folder, in the same path.

So I guess that's that. Hope this helps anyone else having this question.
