Joomla 3-上传组件

Question

I will be building a component that allows me to override the user registration page. The question is, when I try to upload the custom component upon finishing the task, where does Joomla place the uploaded component? Will it be at the current templates folder(templates/mytemplate/html/) or in the components folder (root/components)?

If you are creating a new component you have to define the path of your files in the xml installation package . All component files are placed at components/*component_name/ folder.

If you just want to make a template override of an existing component you have to copy the file that will be overriden from:

components/*component_name/views/*view_category/tmpl/*tmpl_name.php

to:

templates/*template_name/html/*component_name/*view_category/*tmpl_name.php .

Hope this helps
