Template overrides

Important

Template overrides are not recommended as there are frequent updates and changes in the front-end template files. Updates may introduce new features or changes that break template overrides from older versions.

If you still want to use template overrides, make sure that you update the overriden files on every component update. Always check the changelog of the extension when updating.

To create a template override for a widget:

Create a directory com_minitekslider inside the html directory of your website template.
Create a directory slider inside the com_minitekslider directory.

Copy the files

default.php
default_article_slider_1.php
default_article_slider_2.php
default_article_slider_3.php
default_article_slider_4.php
default_article_slider_5.php
default_image_slider.php
default_media_slider.php

from

PATH_TO_JOOMLA/components/com_minitekslider/tmpl/slider/

to

PATH_TO_JOOMLA/templates/TEMPLATE_NAME/html/com_minitekslider/slider/

Rename the new files, using the same base name; for example

override.php
override_article_slider_1.php
override_article_slider_2.php
override_article_slider_3.php
override_article_slider_4.php
override_article_slider_5.php
override_image_slider.php
override_media_slider.php

In the field Layout > Template, select the new template override.
Make your changes inside the appropriate file depending on the selected slider theme.
