Need to copy some core files from library to my theme

422

Where should I put them ?

ie. library > core > blah.php

To explain, i need to change some functions. Nothing to mad.. But they would need to be pulled from my theme.

I was wondering if we could put it in locale/en-ca/definitions.php file.

The code I wanna add is. located in functions.definitions.php

But If I add new code, wont this conflict with esisting code?

The code is:

return '< a class="tip" title="Posted By' . htmlspecialchars($Name) . '" href="'.htmlspecialchars(Url('/profile/'.($NameUnique ? '' : "$UserID/").rawurlencode($Name))).'"'.$CssClass.'>'.htmlspecialchars($Name).'</ a>';

This is only a slight modification to existing core file, by adding class to the href and a title tag

copy the function into your theme and give it a new name. or add the class via jquery.

Hmm now that has me stumped.

Decided in the end to edit the core file, with notes in theme on what user needs to do.

My thought was if you need such and such a function

e.g. userbuilder

find the function in the core

and copy it into your theme rename to myuserbuilder
and modify the function.

No i need to append class and title attributes to a pre existing function. Its ok, can live with a core edit. Prefer not to but ho hum.

Works fine.

find the tag and use jquery add class if you want, and look at the Johnny Example and the plugin. They do kind of what you may be looking for.
