-- HikaShop version -- : 2.4.0
-- Joomla version -- : 3.4.0

How can I prevent any images that I replace from be overridden when I upgrade? The images that I am referring to are the payment images, eg: paypal, bank, etc... as well as the images used on the checkout page eg: refresh.png, delete2.png, etc..

Thank you!

Hi,

It is more a trick than a real process.
What I generally do is to create a folder near the "media/com_hikashop/images" one, called "media/com_hikashop/my_images".
I placed my overridden images there and each time I need to (after an update, etc), I just copy the content of "my_images" to "images" (using "cp -r").
So I have a special folder just for the images I override and I'm sure that folder is not replaced when I update HIkaShop.
