Component / Module tmpl files cannot be overwritten - Joomla! Forum - community, help and support

i've upgraded joomla 1.5 2.5. in installation fine except template overrides. i've tried them component , module don't work. strange thing overrides working old 1.5 extensions. work fine com_content well. here example:

i copied the:

code: select all

/modules/mod_xperttweets/tmpl/xperttweets.css

into the:

code: select all

/templates/mytemplate/html/mod_xperttweets/xperttweets.css

location not change styling. i've done obvious change stylesheet such changing font colour pink doesn't show , firebug shows css being used in old location (modules folder).

is there else need aware of make work? new 2.5 i've been using 1.5 many years.

btw: i've read guide on template overrides please don't paste link again.

it doesn't answer question in way want, there 2 easy solutions. have never tried trying do, can't there. but, can either,
1. append css overrides template.css file. keep in 1 place.
2. if organization, create css file , label extensions.css. upload in template's css folder. add of css overrides of extensions in there, , make sure link template's index file.
