How come big extensions use no templates and still get popul - Joomla! Forum - community, help and support
how come big extensions use no templates , still popular? i'm talking in first place community builder , virtuemart. when making website client not long ago, first found out problem: virtuemart doesn't use templates (and mean there no "views" directory templates in it). in order change output, had dig code, , change there, instead of making file "html/com_virtuemart/{page_name}/{template_name}.php" in own site template.
the biggest problem is: when update virtuemart newer version, lose changes (and don't want go through whole process of searching specific piece of html code through 100s of files, irregularly distributed between administrator directory , normal directory)! want use community builder own site, , decided change login module fit design, find out html hard coded mod_cblogin.php echo commands.
this not how joomla supposed work, in opinion. yet these extensions popular. why?
