I am trying to make my changes in hook files only, but there are couple of things which can only be done in overwritable files .
Is there a way to automatically apply patches to generated files?
To give an example:
The file inc.Common.php contains the following code which shows the "Jump-To" menu on all pages except the homepage:
Code: Select all
<?php if(!$home_page){ ?>
<?php echo NavMenus(); ?>
<?php } ?>
I want to remove the condition (first and last line of the code) to see the menu on every page, even on the homepage.
Code: Select all
<?php echo NavMenus(); ?>
Code: Select all
<?php if(!$home_page || true){ ?>
<?php echo NavMenus(); ?>
<?php } ?>
So I'm wondering if there is any tool out there which will automatically patch the generated files according to some configurable rules (diff/merge?)
How do others handle this?
Thanks, guys!
Kind Regards,
Jan
PS: Maybe BigProf can add a project setting "[x] hide jump-to menu on homepage" in the next release?
