Can't find Joomla pagination template - php

I'm going crazy with this one. I am trying to change a little bit the pagination style and layout in Joomla. So, I found this file: libraries\joomla\html\pagination.php but I know that pagination is overridden by this file: templates\gk_yourshop\html\pagination.php. Yet, if I modify something in gk_yourshop\html\pagination.php, I can't see the change in the pages. Does joomla cache templates and I have to re-load them (like phpBB)?. I don't understand.
I tried to check if writePagesLinks is called from joomla\html\pagination.php with this:
function getPagesLinks()
{
echo "test";
global $mainframe;
and I can't see the message. I also did this in the other pagination.php file and it's just like I can delete them and it doesn't matter. Can you help me? Thanks!

Looks like I changed it here some time ago:
\libraries\joomla\html\pagination.php
But, that is system file, so i just make a "hotfix" of it.

In Joomla 3.x you can create pagination override from Extensions > Templates > Default Template > Create Overrides > Layouts > Pagination.
The override files are created in "Default Template" "html\layouts\joomla\pagination" folder.
You can edit the override files as per your needs.

Where are you getting WritePageLinks from? That's not one of the supported methods.
http://docs.joomla.org/Understanding_Output_Overrides#Pagination_Links_Overrides
There are four functions that can be used:
pagination_list_footer
This function is responsible for showing the select list for the
number of items to display per page.
pagination_list_render
This function is responsible for showing the list of page number links
as well at the Start, End, Previous and Next links.
pagination_item_active
This function displays the links to other page numbers other than the
"current" page.
pagination_item_inactive
This function displays the current page number, usually not
hyperlinked.
[edit]
You may also want to look at Protostar as an example.

Drupal variables in region templates

I'm doing my first totally custom Drupal 7 theme. I have the page.tpl.php file working fine and have header and footer regions working, until I move this:
<?php print render($page['main_menu']); ?>
into region--header.tpl.php - the menu is no longer generated - the html around the PHP is generated - nav etc. so I know drupal's reading the template file OK.
The same code works fine if it is in page.tpl.php
Any help greatly appreciated.
Main menu available as block. So you can just put him to this region. It's good practice.
Also don't forget to clear drupal/browser cache.
If you define custom variable in preprocess_page() or any other preprocess functions you shouldn't use render function, just use print $main_menu for example.

Broken SilverStripe Template

For some reason, after doing a ?flush=all, a certain page type is not able to locate it's default template. I figure out that it's not loading it's template file after appending showtemplate=1 to the URL. The dumped raw template shows nothing for the default template.
Pastebin: http://pastebin.com/uMLefAsP
I wish someone could point me to the right direction here, for I have no idea where to start debugging.
Thanks, Jan.
Firstly, and I have to ask: Is there actually a PageType called "CommunityExtensionPage"? PageTypes need to be named the same as the required template, for the template to be picked-up automatically.
You seem to have two template files "CommunityExtensionPage.ss". One at "templates/CommunityExtensionPage.ss" and one at "templates/Layout/CommunityExtensionPage.ss"
It would be useful to see the contents of both files. SilverStripe will look for "CommunityExtensionPage.ss" in the top-level of the "templates" dir before looking in "templates/Layout".
If "templates/CommunityExtensionPage.ss" is found, it will also try and look for "templates/Layout/CommunityExtensionPage.ss" and render this into the $Layout template variable. Otherwise, it'll use the default "templates/Page.ss" and request "templates/Layout/CommunityExtensionPage.ss"
Does your "templates/CommunityExtensionPage.ss" template contain a reference to $Layout? If not, then the contents of "templates/Layout/CommunityExtensionPage.ss" will not be rendered.

How to make a template overwrite for mod_menu with alternative layouts for link outputs?

I understand and love template overwrites. I need to do some heavier changes to the menu output (basically making the output work better with Bootstrap) - but only for certain menus.
Currently in Joomla 3 there are the following in the mod_menu/tmpl folder:
default.php
default_component.php
default_heading.php
default_separator.php
default_url.php
If I want to change the classes I'd copy the default.php into my mytemplate/html/mod_menu and change it. Great, no problem.
If I want to change the link outputs to go along with that I can copy the default_component.php to mytemplate/html/mod_menu and change it. Great, no problem.
If I want to have the choice of having a different "Alternative Layout" I'd rename the mytemplate/html/mod_menu/default.php to newlayout.php, then select it in the admin module manager for that menu. Great, no problem.
Here's the problem: If I want to have the link output changed for certain menus but not all of them I figure I'd change default_component.php to newlayout_component.php like I did above which would correspond to the newlayout.php...but that doesn't work.
Questions:
1) How to have alternative layouts for each of the default_component.php, default_heading.php, default_separator.php, default_url.php template files (not just an overwrite)?
2) I would think default_url.php is the one that would affect the link outputs but it seems it's default_component.php that does. So what does each one of those do? I couldn't find any information on joomla.org about that.
Thanks!
The alternative layout feature only works for the main file (default.php), not for the sublayouts (default_component.php, ...). So you have to create your own newlayout.php which then can load newlayout_component.php, or use the default_component.php. In fact, the default_component.php will be used as fallback if no newlayout_component.php is found.
The code switches over the $item->type of the link. 'separator', 'url', 'component' and 'heading' are handled by the 'default_'.$item->type, everything else will use default_url. So a plain URL should indeed be generated by default_url.php, not default_component.php. If it behaves differently, it's likely a bug.

How to theme Ubercart Checkout Complete page

I want to theme the page /cart/checkout/complete
I already saw the settings in admin/store/settings/checkout/settings, but they are not enough.
I want to add some HTML i.e. add a print button at the top of the page.
I would like to have a .tpl.php file to use as template, or otherwise, using an alternate checkout page, how to insert the texts defined in checkout settings.
I tried to make a uc_cart_complete_sale.tpl.php but it isn't called.
Thank you in advance.
According to the Template Suggestion documentation you can provide a custom page.tpl.php for absolutely any path, so a template file with the following name would override page.tpl.php for the path cart/checkout/complete:
page--cart--checkout--complete.tpl.php
Be sure to clear Drupal's cache once you've create the file so the changes are picked up in the theme registry.
After hard work, i found the template page.
It is:
page--cart--checkout--complete.tpl.php
remember to clear the cache
firstly, you should probably check this page: admin/store/settings/checkout/edit/messages
there you can customize a header for the message displayed when the checkout completes.
other than that, you can implement some functions to alter this page. from a short look in the ubercart api maybe this function will do: my_module_checkout_complete() in this link the guy says it worked
another function that should work is theme_uc_cart_complete_sale
there are other options, such as in your template.php check if this is /checkout/complete and do whatever you want. like this:
if (arg(0) == 'cart' && arg(1) == 'checkout' && arg(2) == 'complete')
and than redirect to your page. anyway, there are plenty of ways to accomplish this, but just naming a file 'uc_cart_complete_sale.tpl.php' won't work. sorry...
In D6 at least, you can theme the message by overriding theme_uc_cart_complete_sale() - so if that's what you're after, theme the message by overriding that in your theme (for example, function mytheme_uc_cart_complete_sale($message, $order) {}

Custom Taxonomy Term page in Drupal 7

I'm trying to make a custom Taxonomy Term page in Drupal 7. I've created a page--taxonomy.tpl.php file in my templates folder. The file only prints out a message. I now try to force the template file by adding
function template_preprocess_page($variables) {
if (arg(0) == 'taxonomy') {
$variables['template_file'] = 'page--taxonomy-tpl';
}
}
in my template.php, but it won't work. Can you help me? And if I get the custom page working, how do I fetch the nodes with this term (in page--taxonomy.tpl.php)? Thanks in advance.
Try using this in your template.php:
function template_preprocess_page(&$variables) {
if (arg(0) == 'taxonomy') {
$variables['theme_hook_suggestions'][] = 'page__taxonomy';
}
}
You need to pass $variables by reference, so add a & before it
template_file has changed to theme_hook_suggestions in Drupal 7
You don't need the -tpl in the template suggestion unless you want it to be a part of the filename like "page--taxonomy-tpl.tpl.php" which I don't think is what you want.
For more information, check out template_preprocess_page(), theme_get_suggestions() and Working with template suggestions
Not sure if this would meet your requirements, but one of default D7 views - Taxonomy term - emulates Drupal core's handling of taxonomy/term pages. You could just enable it (it would automatically replace Drupal's core taxonomy URLs), and then do whatever you want with it, keeping original page structure, all blocks etc, using Views' page templates (see "Theming information" in "Advanced") and all other bells and whistles...
Since you are using Drupal 7, you could also create a file name "taxnomy-term.tpl.php" and edit according to your needs.
See taxonomy-term.tpl.php
Full control over the taxonomy term page can be obtained using hook_menu_alter() . See https://drupal.stackexchange.com/questions/48420/theming-and-overriding-taxonomy-term-vocabulary-page/111194#111194
