I followed this guide for an override without much success: http://stackideas.com/docs/easyblog/customizations/template-overriding

I want to override origami template, in fact, I would like to override all templates

If I put origami styles.css in override css folder, toolbar goes rogue, if I put default styles.css I miss all origami styling, even If I add it manually...

So, how to do it?

Regards
Hello Josep,

When you copy the css files over as is, the images would also need to be copied over since the css files uses relative path to the images. You can't just actually copy the css file over

Hello Josep,

Sorry for the late reply. Unfortunately the template override is only for 1 theme. You cannot override for all the themes This actually means, for example you copied the files from the "origami" theme. Then you change the files. After that you change your theme go "simplistic". This will cause the site styling to break. This happens because the template will load the override file regardless of what theme you are using.

As for the CSS breaking there are some issues with the way we code it :P Please go to the file

JOOMLA/components/com_easyblog/helpers/helper.php

and change the codes in line 2727 from
if( !$siteOverride )

to
if( $siteOverride )

Hope this helps.

Thanks!
