    Disabling RokMage layout on Magento checkout page

    Posted 12 years 4 weeks ago
    • I'm trying to install an extension that changes the checkout page (One Step Checkout Pro - www.mage-world.com/one-step-checkout-pro-magento-extension.html ) on a Magento 1.7.0.2 site that's using the Ximenia template. They are conflicting and causing the checkout page to render blank, but it is trying to load the RocketTheme layout.

      The extension works fine on the default theme/template, so how can I get the checkout page to load the default layout while still using the overall Ximenia styling?

      Thanks for any help!

    • Many extension developers unfortunately add their files to the "default" package (app/design/frontend/default) as opposed to the "base" package, which makes them inaccessible to any theme that uses it's own package, such as ours (app/design/frontend/THEME).

      So usually, to get them working, you need to copy any files the extension adds, from the default to the base or the theme package. So for example, if you have the following added:

      app/design/frontend/default/default/layout/extension-name/extension-name.xml
      app/design/frontend/default/default/template/extension-name/extension-name.phtml
      skin/frontend/default/default/extension-name/extension-name.css


      These should be copied to:

      app/design/frontend/THEME/default/layout/extension-name/extension-name.xml
      app/design/frontend/THEME/default/template/extension-name/extension-name.phtml
      skin/frontend/THEME/default/extension-name/extension-name.css
