Question:

How to override controllers in cs-cart?

Problem:

Sometimes you need to override default controller behavior in cs-cart. But you can't use override modifier like in hooks.

What are approaches we can use to override default controllers?

Solution:

The simplest approach I found is to use dispatch_assign_template hook from fn.control.php file.

function fn_myaddon_dispatch_assign_template($controller, $mode, $area, &$controllers_cascade) {

if ($controller !== 'categories' || $mode !== 'view') {

return;

}

//excluded default categories controller

$default_controller_path = DIR_ROOT . '/app/controllers/frontend/categories.php';

$controllers_cascade = array_filter(

$controllers_cascade,

static function ($item) use ($default_controller_path) {

return $default_controller_path !== $item;

}

);

}

if ($mode == 'view') {

//your code here.

}
