Template Override Not Working

    Hi there,

    I’ve read the various items here: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/login-with-ajax/other_notes/

    Specifically, I’m referring to overriding the default plugin templates via a child theme. I’ve tested this with multiple themes and have disabled all plugins except ‘Login With Ajax.’ Seems that despite copying plugin files to wp-content/themes/your-theme/plugins/login-with-ajax/ , no change overrides the plugin.

    Hi,

    Which version of Login With Ajax are you using?

    Same for me, I’m using shortcode [lwa template=”modal”] and other arguments (divs-only and default) but it’s still returning the same theme.

    Sorry the template is working for me, I had server issues which wouldn’t transfer the file properly that I didn’t notice

    Hi caimin_nwl, sorry for the delayed response.

    We are using:

    WP: 4.4.2
    Log in with Ajax: 3.1.5
    Twenty Sixtenn: 1.1

    We have just done a totally fresh install and have no other plugins activated.

    We’ve tried virtually every way we can using both shortcodes and the template tag to no avail.

    Thanks in advance!

    Can you post the shortcode you’re using?

    Hi caimin_nwl,

    Sure, the shortcode we’re using are several
    [lwa]
    [lwa template=”modal”]
    [login-with-ajax]
    [login-with-ajax template=”modal”]

    Essentially, what we’ve done is set up a completely clean, new install using the Twenty Sixteen theme and only the LWA plugin installed.

    Have you tried just using [lwa] and trying to custom templates in all of the alternate locations mentioned here;

    Hi there,

    So, we finally got the template to work (was just a dumb mistake from our end).

    Now, I would like to know if it’s possible to override the .js file from within the /wp-content/themes/your-theme/plugins/login-with-ajax/ directory or if I actually need to override the .js from the plugin directory itself.

    Thanks!

    Which file are you trying to change?

    Hi caimin_nwl,

    Thanks for the response and sorry for my delayed response.

    I’m trying to modify widget/login-with-ajax.js. When I try to override it via my theme (e.g. /wp-content/themes/your-theme/plugins/login-with-ajax/my-widget/login-with-ajax.js) the change doesn’t seem to take effect.

    Thanks!

    Are you trying this in a child theme or parent theme?

    Hi caimin_nwl,

    I tried in a child theme.

    Thanks!

    Have you tried this structure:

    /wp-content/themes/your-theme/plugins/login-with-ajax/

    Hi caimin_nwl,

    Yes, I have tried that structure and is what I’m using. To be specific, I’ve tried all of the following to no avail

    /wp-content/themes/my-child-theme/plugins/login-with-ajax/my-template/login-with-ajax.js
    /wp-content/themes/my-child-theme/plugins/login-with-ajax/my-template/widget/login-with-ajax.js
    /wp-content/themes/my-child-theme/plugins/login-with-ajax/widget/login-with-ajax.js

    Thanks in advance!

    Have you tried using the parent theme instead of the child theme?
