Templates not overwriting

[Veverica]

Greetings!

I'm having issues with overwriting the default templates. Here are the steps I took:
Copied the aimeos git repository;
Composer update after creating database
Served up the project. The demo shop appeared, all is well in the world.
Started off by copying the views files from aimeos-laravel into /resources/views/vendor/shop - saw results when messing with these, they seem to work

Then, after reading the documentation for overwriting templates I ran the extension builder and unzipped the project files into the /ext/<myextension>/ folder structure, mimicking the folder structure found in ai-client-html, where /ext is at the root of the project. I copied the template files found in the ai-client-html folder into <myextension> template folder and this is where I get stuck. No matter what change in the templates from <myextension> there seem to be no changes made. Help would be much appreciated!

Laravel Framework 6.20.43
PHP 7.3.31
Aimeos 2021.07
Windows 10

Here is my composer.json found at the root of the project:

Can you post a concrete example of a template you want to overwrite and where you've stored the copy?

[Veverica]

For example I want to overwrite the /catalog/detail/body-standard.php, which I copied to /ext/<myextension>/client/html/templates/catalog/detail/body-standard.php. As previously mentioned, /ext is located at the root of the project.

This is perfectly fine, just make sure you clear the cache with:

Code: Select all

php artisan aimeos:clear

or disable the cache during development:

Okay, that worked, thanks!
