How to overwrite output of EShop views! was created by Giang Dinh Truong
Dear all,
EShop is a standard Joomla MVC extension so it works based on standard Joomla rules. Joomla allows you to overwrite output of any components and modules from the template (Checkout more about this here: docs.joomla.org/How_to_override_the_outp...rom_the_Joomla!_core ) so EShop also allows you to do that.

Example: To overwrite output of product details page, you need to copy file: components/com_eshop/themes/default/views/product/default.php to folder templates/your_template/html/com_eshop/product/default.php and modify this file from the template.

Once the file is putted in the template folder, it will be used instead of the file in the EShop component. So in the future, if you update EShop, the your works will be not lost.

Sincerely, Giang

Hi again Paula,
In the configuration of module, you have option to choose products type to show. Let's choose Featured, then your module will be featured products. Does not make sense?
