Confused About Overrides On A Fresh Installation Of Helix Ultimate Quickstart Pack - Joomla 4

Template 3 years ago

Hello, I am new to web development and Joomla.

I installed the Helix Ultimate Quickstart Pack - Joomla 4 to my website and updated the Joomla version and the extensions to the latest version.

I now have warnings about 3 Overrides to check and I am confused on what the overrides are because I have not edited anything.

The overrides are in the Helix Ultimate Template and are on the files

  • /html/com_contact/contact/default_address.php
  • /html/com_contact/contact/default_form.php
  • /html/layouts/joomla/content/info_block.php

there is also one file which says "original file removed" which is already marked as checked.

  • /html/layouts/plugins/user/profile/fields/dob.php

I will also mention the files that its flagging are almost empty whilst the original file has lots of code in it when I compare them on the override check screen.

for example my default_address.php is this:

but it shows the original file as this:

and these are the differences:

I am so confused, please help.
