greetings...

I am having two problems with radix template files...

1) I would like to copy and use my own include files, in other words, override radix base theme includes. however, i am finding i can't do it without special programming which i am not proficient enough at to achieve. I am unable to properly alter the $theme_path to use my own includes. can you please provide a code snippet that I can insert into the template at the sub theme level that will call the sub theme's include files? most specifically, i am interested in menu.inc at the theme level without messing with the one at radix base theme level.

2) For some reason I am having a heck of a time getting my radix subtheme to recognize its template php file. I can't dpm anything and get any krumo results. however, if i dpm a function at the base theme level template.php file i see krumo just fine.

Thanks much for any help you can provide. cheers kevin

Hi, quick question, by any chance, do you have a hyphen in your theme name?

I've attached a sample sub theme with includes file and dpm in template.php. Let me know if this helps.

Cool. I've also added these sample include files in the radix_starter theme as well. Should be helpful.

well, i spoke too soon. the dpm message works perfectly fine on your subtheme and radix but not my theme. i just don't get it. never had this problem before. it is certainly not a problem with your theme. it is directly related to my subtheme but i am clueless. i would be grateful for any tips on what might cause a template.php file not to be read by a theme. i have checked to ensure that all file names (info file, template functions, folders, etc) match. what else is there to look for to troubleshoot such a situation? really appreciate your help. thanks (btw, my theme name does not have hyphen).
