Hello dear StackIdeas,

I am working for a customer that's using the Geommunity3es map for Easysocial users, events and media.

He wants me to modifiy the core default address fields so when we click on these, we don't leave to external Google maps but to site's Geommunity3 map.

It's not a hard modification, as Geommunity3 handles coordinates vars in url to center the map, but my question is:

Can fields modification be stored in a separate template override folder so ES updates do not overwrite mods ?

Thanks for letting me know.
Hey Adrien,

It depends on what you want to mod actually. Do you intend to mod the theme files or the app file itself? Currently you can only override the theme files for custom fields though and to override the theme files, you need to place them in

/templates/XXX/com_easysocial/apps/fields/user/field_xxx/

Hey Mark, thanks for your quick reply (as always)
Yes , the theme output, changing the href link to Geommunity instead of Google Maps.
So your answer is perfect.

I also have to mod the wireframe files for the same purpose for photos and albums adresses.
I found out it would be in
wireframe/photos/info.php
&
wireframe/albums/info.php

Is it "overridable" the same way ? What path?

Hello Adrien,

You can override easysocial theme file in the following path

/templates/XXX/html/com_easysocial/photos/
/templates/XXX/html/com_easysocial/albums/
