Template files won’t work in child theme

    I’m trying to update the my-bookings.php file in my theme.

    If I place my edited file in the parent theme it works fine (/wp-content/buddyboss-theme/plugins/events-manager/templates/my-bookings.php)

    But if I try to add it in my child theme folder it does not work (/wp-content/buddyboss-theme-child/plugins/events-manager/templates/my-bookings.php)

    I’ve even tried having the file in both to see if the child theme file would override the parent theme file.

    Hello,

    Sorry for the late response. I’ve tried testing this with a custom child theme and it does seem to work on my end. Is the buddy boss theme free? If Yes, Do you think We could get a link on where you download it?

    Buddyboss is a premium theme. It’s available at buddyboss.com

    I can send you a login to a staging site with it if you need to see the theme files.

    I would need to know what email address to use for a login and if possible the ip address that would be used so I can whitelist it.

    So I’ve discovered that some template files work as expected. I added event-single.php and it works in the child theme directory.

    it’s only the my-bookings.php file that I can’t get to work in the child theme. I’m wondering if it’s the way that the theme is pulling that template as a sub item of the member profile. The url to the page it’s on is /members/jeremy/events/my-bookings/

    I can try to get an answer from buddyboss support as well.

    Thanks

    Hello,

    Would like to follow-up on this one if you received any reply from buddyboss support? Since it’s a premium theme and it only happens on buddyboss, We could only provide a very limited support.

    If the developers of buddyboss have any suggestions that We should change on our code please let us know.
