Question

I saw many such questions, but all answers are basically copies of the same solution with custom theme. Is it possible just to override core file

vendor/magento/module-sales/view/frontend/templates/email/shipment/track.phtml

without creating a custom theme? If so, what exactly path should I create to put altered track.phtml to? My intention is to make collection of altered files that will not be overwritten during Magento or 3rd party theme automatic upgrade so I can easily keep all core functionality changes. And this will allows me to keep changes even if theme is switched to another one. Thank you.

Was it helpful?

Solution

You can override that file using different ways :

1. Override template and xml file in your custom module :

  • You can add this XML file in your custom module and you can change path like..

app/code/Vendor/Module/view/frontend/layout/sales_email_order_shipment_track.xml

Content for this file is :

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<page xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:View/Layout/etc/page_configuration.xsd">
    <body>
        <referenceBlock name="sales.order.email.shipment.track">
            <action method="setTemplate">
                <argument name="template" xsi:type="string">Vendor_Module::email/shipment/track.phtml</argument>
            </action>
        </referenceBlock>
    </body>
</page>
  • After adding above xml file you need to create template file in your custom module here.

app/code/Vendor/Module/view/frontend/templates/email/shipment/track.phtml

2. Override template file in your custom theme :

  • You can copy track.phtml file here in your custom theme

app/design/frontend/Vendor/Theme/Magento_Sales/templates/email/shipment/track.phtml

  • After that you can change anything here based on your requirement.

Note : In all above cases, your file will not change when you update your Magento version.

Hope this will help you!
