Question

I create a simple block (just a core/template) with a custom phtml file to make an extension without modifying other phtml file.

But I cannont make it shows except by modifying an original template to add $this->getChildHtml('myblock') thing.

I want to add my block without changing any other phtml. How to do this, how to make the block display automatically without getChildHtml method ?

Answer 1

I figure out how to do this,

I create my own module, with my own layout and templates.

In the layout I updated the section where the parent block is called, to insert my new block first, then in my template I call the parent through getChildHtml() so I don’t have to touch any of my client’s file.

Best regards, to everyone
