I followed the directions very closely re: the Easyblog Template Override, but it does not seem to work. Please advise.
I have checked your site and it seems like the override is working correctly at https://christianbusinessnetwork.com/resources/blogs/entry/not-by-might-nor-by-power .

1. I added this sentence in the override file, http://take.ms/MaNFh . The file which I modified is in /templates/cbn_reimagined_text_standard/html/com_easyblog/blogs/entry/navigation.php

2. This is the output, http://take.ms/lxSUP

Mark, I was making reference to the main template.php file within the Protostar template. From what other forums are stating, there is a bug in your system that prevents this from working. Please advise. Michael

Are you trying to override the e-mail templates? I don't see any e-mail template files /templates/cbn_reimagined_text_standard/html/com_easyblog

The main email template I am attempting to override is in /templates/protostar/html/com_easyblog/emails/html/template.php.

Why are you placing in protostar Michael? If your default Joomla template is cbn_reimagined_text_standard, then the correct path to place this file is at

/templates/cbn_reimagined_text_standard/html/com_easyblog/emails/html/template.php

Sorry about that, Mark. The gentleman who was managing EB for us has moved on. I did not know that this was our default template. That explains a lot. I will place the updated file in that folder.

Where do I locate the option to select the default email template?

Hm, what do you mean by select the default email template? You don't really need to select anything. This is the Joomla template and not EasyBlog

So, in order to modify the EB standard template.php file, I need to create this folder - /templates/cbn_reimagined_text_standard/html/com_easyblog/emails/html/ - and place the new template.php file here? Is that what you're saying? Please explain. Thanks for your patience with me on this.
