Hi, the plugin does not have any tmpl part so it cannot be overriden. So the option is to copy it and make own plugin with different output

Any plan to do that? it's sometimes really necessary.
Unfortunately I did that by direct modification

Hi, the problem is, there are so many conditions in the plugin, so it seems to be easiear way to clone the plugin and customize the changes in the plugin itself than overwrite it completely in template. Really hard to say. I have added it to feature request list but really no idea when I will be able to take a look at it.

Is it possible? I mean overriding whole plugin?
For example I added [download hits] to the title of file:
Code: Select all
case 'filepreviewlink':
if ((int)$id > 0) {// hack :: add hits to the query
$query = 'SELECT a.id, a.title,a.hits, a.alias, a.filename_play,
line 357
Code: Select all
} else {//hack:: change class and add hits ...
if(JFactory::getUser()->id)
$output .= '<div class="downloadNow signed"><a href="'. JRoute::_($link).'" '.$targetOutput.' target="_blank"><i class="fa fa-chevron-circle-down" ></i>'. $textOutput." | ".$item->hits.' hits </a></div>';
else
$output .= '<div class="downloadNow violet"><a class="log-popup white cursor" '.$targetOutput.' target="_blank"><i class="fa fa-lock" ></i>Login & '.$textOutput." | ".$item->hits.' hits </a></div>';
}
line 697
In fact if I can override whole plugin, that's really useful for me

Hi, overriding the whole plugin in fact means, you just create a copy of this plugin. Which is maybe the best way. Just edit it and store as backup.
