Override of controller file with extend

[Kunsthelden]

Dear team,

 

I have written an override controller file and put it into and deleted cache:

/modules/jmarketplace/override/controllers/front/myfile 

 

I also tried out:

- /override/controllers/front/myfile 

- /override/modules/mymodule/controllers/front/myfile 

(with Prestashop 1.7.2.1)

 

All three didn't work. The mymodule was installed before amending the controller file and adding it to the override folder. Myfile 'class NameModuleFrontController extends ModuleFrontController' is trying to override a file that starts already with an extend like 'class NameModuleFrontController extends ModuleFrontController'.

 

I followed instr on: http://doc.prestashop.com/display/PS16/Overriding+default+behaviors#Overridingdefaultbehaviors-Overridingamodule'sbehavior

 

Does anybody know what I do wrong or not take into concideration?

 

Kind regards

what core controller are you trying to override?

Dear Bellini

Thank you so much for your offered support. 
I was able to manage to override controllers. I'm personally not so convinced by the TPL where I got the impression that TPLs have not yet a good override solution as controllers. 

I'll set it as closed. Mistake was that I didn't use the word override for modules.

Kind regards,
