Problem overriding blocklayered

[Kaharo]

Hello,

 

I want to override the blocklayered module, but it looks like it is not working... I changed the class declaration from

class BlockLayered extends Module {
to

class BlockLayeredOverride extends BlockLayered {

in the blocklayered.php file, and then added the new file in /override/modules/blocklayered/
I deleted the class_index.php as asked, but it still did not work.

Any idea ?

Thanks for you help.

Are you doing it PS 1.6.1.x?

Yes, the version I use is 1.6.1.4. I saw this tutorial before and I tried to apply it, but it still did not work...
I red somewhere that is was impossible to override the main .php file of a module, is it still the case ? Do I have to create a new module ?

 

EDIT : It seems like the override works, but the modifications I made are ignored ? I kept all the code from the source module, and just changed a bit some functions. Can someone help ?

I fixed my problem somehow. Presatshop used to see my override, but did not take it into account. It was installed in my host (planet hoster) with softacullous, which installed it in a strange way. I installed it by myself and then it worked perfectly.

I did not find where the problem really was but it's working.
