override php file under administrator

Can we override php file locate under administrator\components\com_hikashop\helpers\*.php
How does the mapping work ?

Hi,

It depends on which helper file you want to override.
For most files it is possible but you have to be careful to not break a potential compatibility or you could have some problems with updates.

Regards,

cart.php i think

if i want to instead to display a "Add to card" I want to display a checkbox
Do i need to
1-overide displayButton
2- copy/paste this function and rename it for example to checkboxdisplay and change the html code to have for the input instead type="button" a type="checkbox" ?


thank's

Hi there,

Changing the button type is not as easy as changing type="button" to type="checkbox".
You will need to add more code in order submit the form automatically with the right parameters.
So the best solution is to copy/paste the function and cahnge the code to fit your needs.

yes it is what i discover after read the code !!
The button is in relation with the cart module and variable value relative to quantity .. cart module is the only way to delete item , add cart button let us only increment decrement value from a positive number ... not negative max decrement equal to the number shown in the module cart ..

Thank's
