Overwrite in child theme not working?

    Hi all,

    I`m trying to overwrite the booking-fields.php (to delete phone number) and followed the readme.txt:

    “Any of these files in this folder can be individually overriden in your theme folder, making it upgrade safe without having to hack core plugin files directly.
    To override a file, copy (not move) the file to wp-content/themes/yourtheme/plugins/events-manager/forms/ and edit as needed.”

    That`s why I create the following structure below my child theme:
    plugins/events-manager/form/bookingforms

    I copied an adjusted version of booking-fields.php into this directory, but the field still exists. (If I use this file in the original directoy it works.)

    Does anyone know, why this doesn`t work?

    Thanks a lot.

    does it work when trying the parent theme

    e.g.
    themes/Your Theme/plugins/events-manager/forms/bookingform/booking-fields.php

    Yes, it does. But not inside the child theme. 🙁

    I face a similar issue, but I would like to use openstreetmap.org instead of google maps.

    I followed these instructions (but without success):
    This file contains the HTML generated for a single location Google map. You can copy this file to yourthemefolder/plugins/events/templates and modify it in an upgrade-safe manner.

    Any help please?
    Thanks.
