 * Hello.
 * Is it possible to overwrite the template files?
 * On my theme folder, I create /question-answer/single-question/ and i duplicated
   single-question-hook.php.
 * However, i can’t see my modification.
    But it works when i edit the same file
   directly on the plug-in folder.
 * Can you help me ? Thank you !

 * Hi, we used `the_content` filter hook to override question single page templates,
 * you should remove the hooked function for question templates, by adding following
   code on your theme functions.php
 *     ```
       remove_filter( 'the_content', 'qa_single_question_content' );
       ```
   
 * see the following file, line: 1592
 * `question-answer/includes/functions.php`
 * then you can add your own hooked function.

 * Thank you for your answer.
 * However, I still don’t understand how I can overwrite the plugin’s template files
   in my custom theme.
    In theory, I should be able to overwrite them by duplicating
   your files in my own theme and modifying them there, but it doesn’t work. I need
   to be able to edit your template files to adapt them to our website. I can’t 
   edit them directly in the plugin folder, because an update would overwrite my
   changes.
 * Thanks!
