Hi,

I've been looking in the documetation but I couldn't find anything about customizing the templates. There's field in general settings that allows to define a place wheer those templates are stored but I don't know how to store them. Same name? Same folder hierachy?

Many thanks for your help,

Damien

Damien,

From http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/Directories:

"To modify a template (ex. civicrm/templates/CRM/History/Selector/Activity.tpl ) simply copy the path and file in your custom templates directory (ex. drupal/sites/all/civicrm_templates/CRM/History/Selector/Activity.tpl ) You can then modify the custom template. CiviCRM searches your custom template directory and if it finds a template, it will use that instead of the stock template."

So replying to your question - yes, you need to store the custom template in the same directory hierarchy as the default one.

I guess we should create a separate page in documentation about customising templates so it's easier to find.

Thx,
