I have a slight problem overriding the quantity input in the cart. I have enabled the Ajax option and am following the instructions in the Developer Documentation, but I think there might be an error there. I have created the file templates/MY TEMPLATE/html/com_hikashop/hikashop_button.php - is that the correct name? I have also tried naming it hikashop_quantity.php. In this file I have copied all the code from administrator/components/com_hikashop/helpers/cart.php, just under the check for the override, and added a simple message, but I'm not seeing it displayed so I don't think my override is being picked up at all. I've attached a copy of the file, if you could have a quick look I'd be most grateful. Thanks in advance, Jerry")* was created by *[Density5](/forum/user/6013-density5 "View Density5's Profile")* Hi Nicolas, Just want to say thanks for all your help so far, we are nearly done with out build and I must say I'm really impressed with how customisable Hikashop can be.

The files does NOT go in <template>/html/com_hikashop it goes directly in <template>/html! D'oh!
