Hi,
Ive got Opencart 3.0.3.7 installed. My problem is that I apply changes to twig files from within Opencart admin but after a day or two they keep rolling back to the original state like I never did anything. Why is it or how can I prevent this? It is very annoying.
I removed "addthis"" script like 5 times + other things. 2 days later social buttons are back again. Why?
From theme?
or from storage modification?
Edited how? From admin or using an text editor?
More details...
Code: Select all
catalog\view\theme\default\template\product\product.twigEdited how? From admin or using an text editor?

Forget about that s....t
Edit the file directly with an text editor or from Cpanel, then refresh ocmod modifications, clear theme cache and SASS cache.

And why is this s...t ? ? !
When you post such nonsens, write also why .. otherwise such postings are no benefit and useless.

Because it is useless.
If is not useless for you, then you can use it

I dont know if this is nonsense or not. In fact there is a "design editor" has been built in into Opencart which doesnt seem to work. My question is also why this has been added to Opencart 3 if it does not work or if it has not been toughly tested. I found a "fix" but from the developer's description it is still unclear if this is a fix to the same problem or to some other TWIG modification issues.

It is sad that third party developers have to make patches to Opencart system.
If I was doing something wrong then I would like to know what and why so I can avoid this problem.

Well, pretty straight answer.
And again: useless.
Why?
You won't give an answer why the Theme Editor is s***t, so better don't answer in future.
And to elaborate this "thing" a bit: not the editor is s***t, the answers are s***t.
Because the "bug" is not inside the editor, more inside the file and functions how the TWIG engine is initialized and handled.
And to close this thread: this bug has been discussed several times - here and at Github.
And has also a fix - see more in 2nd answer below.

And regarding this "fix" and this "developer": he is simply copying and paste others work - see this for example:

Fact is, that OC releases are published with a bug not handling templates correct - correct that this is a shame.
But this bug has been solved a long time ago.

Thanks for the input. Unfortunately replacing the modification.xml did NOT work.
I removed again wishlist, comparison buttons and "addthis" social script from the TWIG files and 2 hours later they are back again in the template.
Extremely annoying.

Hi,
blueberry - common/header - "<!DOCTYPE html> etc etc" - "2021-03-21 06:57:50"
Dates are there an seem to update the date when I apply a change. They still roll back after 1-2 hours.
In Opencart config "file" cache is there. Now despite the fact that I edited the twig files on the hosting the database seems to store a different version. What is the appropriate way to update the database stored version?

Search the forum and you'll find plenty of discussion about this but the summary, as others have said, is don't use it.

I'm surprised this is still an issue 3+ years later. Seems like a good idea to just completely disable the entire theme editor until it's fixed.
There are two systems that edit files, the theme editor and the modification system. It is not advised to use both of the systems together unless you know what you are doing because they do not always work together. If you search the forum or use google to search the forum you will find this has been discussed many times. Developers use the modification system. The theme editor is for non-developers. Changing core files is never advised.
It is possible based on your observations of 2 hours that the edits are not "sticking" could be due to the auto modification refresh, again, because they do not work well together if you do nt know what you are doing. The ocmod fix that is a completely different issue from the theme editor.
I presume this is what you want.

I disagree. It is very kind of developers, myself included, to have bothered to offer free fixes, improvements and come here to offer support.It is sad that third party developers have to make patches to Opencart system.
DISCLAIMER:
You should not modify core files .. if you would like to donate a cup of coffee I will write it in a modification for you.
