Hello,

I created a child template from the J4Novah template. Now I also want to change the index.php. So I have copied it to the child template. Now I get the following error message "Failed opening required 'inc/helper.php'"

This is because index.php calls files that are not present in the child template.For example:
require_once("inc/helper.php";)
require_once("inc/variables.php";)
require_once("inc/head.php";)

A solution could be to copy the missing template files into the child template as well.
But then a child template no longer makes sense.

There was the same problem here:
https://www.joomla51.com/forum/riley-500-error-if-usinf-index-php-in-child-template

I could try changing the paths.
But is there a better solution?

I can't provide a link because the site isn't online yet.

Regards

Hello

Currently, if you wish to include the index.php to your child template then you must also copy over the ./inc folder from the original.
