Hello,

How do I override certain functions in e-commerce module without modifying the core files?

To be specific, I want to override the "AllowPurchase" and "addToCart" functions in Product.php

Thanks,
Jatinder Singh Thind

Hi guys,

AllowPurcahse on Product class has been deprecated, and replaced with canPurchase a while back.

You should be able to override / modify this function by creating an extension of Product that implements the canPurchase function. See silverstripe documentation on how to create extensions.
