Magento

I’m trying to modify the address format. When I change app/code/core/Mage/Customer/etc/config.xml this works like expected. Since I don’t want to modify core files, I copied this file to app/code/local/Mage/Customer/etc/config.xml and modified it, but somehow this doesn’t reflect any changes?

I’m quite new to magento, I’m I missing something? Should this work or do I need to do something else. Literally the only thing I did was copy the config.xml file and modify it.

*push*

are there really no answers??

We just did this, you need to overload it with a module.

You need to create this directory structure:

(where \"MyCompany\" is what ever you like)

copy the config.xml into app/code/local/MyCompany/Customer/etc and in config.xml change the Mage_Customer block to MyCompany_Customer. e.g.

Then we created this file to activate the new module:

with this in it:

note, you only need to include the blocks you change in the new config.xml file.
