[Support request] Woocommerce Template Not Overriding When In GP_Child Sub Folder

[Scott]

Hello,

To elaborate, when the WC templates are placed in the root of my child theme folder, everything works and the correct files are rendered. As shown in here, below the footer:

However, when I place these same files into generatepress_child/woocommerce/ they are not rendered. Instead the default archive.php file is rendered, as shown here below the footer:

I’ve tried a bunch of different fixes, however all yield this same result. Do you have any suggestions on how I can get the WC templates to work in the sub folder?

Thank you

Hi there,

That’s strange – according to their documentation, it should only work if placed into a woocommerce folder: https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/template-structure/

Perhaps they’ve changed it? I’m not too sure unfortunately. Have you checked with their support yet?

This is also not working for me.

generatepress_child/woocommerce/order/order-details.php

Wondering if anyone else has had an issue with this whilst using GP?

[Berto]

@Tom sorry any thoughts on this?

Hi there,

what happens if you move the template to the root of your child theme ie.

generatepress_child/order-details.php

[Berto]

Nothing.

Just wondering if this has been tested recently?

[Tom]

I don’t think the issue itself has anything to do with GeneratePress, as GP doesn’t have/overwrite any WooCommerce templates.

For testing purposes, does it work if you use a Twenty-Twenty child theme?

[Berto]

Thanks, Tom, you can mark this as resolved as it has nothing to do with GP.
