URGENT: Stuck On Which Way to Go! was created by Richard
Hey Guys,

I wanted to customize EB for a client of mine but I don't know which way to follow.

1) To override with the normal "YOUR_TEMPLATE_PATH/html/com_eventbooking/..." path and customize as per needed

OR

2) Copy the default EB theme ("component/com_eventbooking/themes/default"), customize as per needed and then install to the EB component on the website backend.

[Note: I think the second option is better but I don't really know how to go about it since there is really not a solid documentation on how to do this.]

Please, can anyone suggest which of the options is better.

Secondly can anyone guide me on how to create, customize and install a new theme for EB.

Rich

@Tuan

Thanks for your prompt response.

I will do just as you recommended.

But it will be great too if a documentation on how to follow the #2 method is included.

Lastly, what is the best way to override the frontend language file without being overwritten upon update.

Thanks

Hello

You can modify the frontend language file directly (or go to Events Booking -> Translation to change it)

It won't be lost when you update

Thanks.

I was doing just that but was afraid it could be overwritten upon upgrade/update.

Regards,

No, the system is smart enough to keep the changes
