Overriding specific third party Woocommerce plugin templates


I'm using a Woocommerce based plugin called Mix 'n Match Products.

This plugin sits inside /plugins/woocommerce-mix-and-match-products/
This folder contains another folder for templates.

Following convention, I have copied the "templates" folder into my child theme and changed the folder name to "woocommerce-mix-and-match-products"

The structure is now themes/storevilla-child/woocommerce-mix-and-match-products/

However, none of the templates override the plugin templates. I have tested. Only once I change the actual plugin template files, does the HTML change.

Can anybody spot what I may be doing wrong?

Thanks


Solution

  • The way to do it is a little bit different. All WooThemes woocommerce plugins use the default woocommerce templates folder described in this documentation:

    2 cases:

    1. You have already a woocommerce folder in your active child theme (or theme).
      Copy from plugins/woocommerce-mix-and-match-products/templates/single-product/mnm/
      to themes/your_active_theme/woocommerce/single-product/
      And plugins/woocommerce-mix-and-match-products/templates/single-product/add-to-cart/mnm.php
      inside themes/your_active_theme/woocommerce/single-product/add-to-cart/

    2. You don't have any woocommerce folder in your active child theme (or theme).
      Copy from plugins/woocommerce-mix-and-match-products/templates/
      inside your active child theme (or theme) and rename it woocommerce.

    So in your case you will have: themes/storevilla-child/woocommerce/
