override controller function does not apply

[casperravn]

Hi guys,

 

I am overriding ProductPresentingFrontController.php which is working as expected for the function prepareProductForTemplate.

 

However when i try to put the function prepareMultipleProductsForTemplate in my override file it does not take effect.

And since this function is calling the first function in an array my override does not work.

 

Can anyone explain what goes wrong, please?

Have you deleted /cache/class_index.php?

Hi Joseantgv,
 
Thanks for the answer.
 

 

I ended up also overriding SearchController.php with the two functions found in ProductListingFrontController (not ProductPresentingFrontController. Dont know where i got that from.) I made the override functions public.

 

So i now have to override files, ProductListingFrontController and SearchController. First override works on product list, and second works when showing product list from searched products.

 

I am not quite sure what is going on so if anyone can explain why I need to override SearchController with functions from ProductListingFrontController, please help explain why.
