After dealing with Non-IT (normal) work for a while....back to the CWS Custom Module project
The current 100% operational setup that we're using is: XC 5.3.2.7 + XC Crisp White skin module 5.3.2.2 + our own Crisp White Skin (Mods) module 5.3.2.1 + some customised core .less files
Our own Crisp White Skin (Mods) module 5.3.2.1 processes all the modifications we have made in the Admin / Common / Mail areas via Main.php and all the modifications we have made in the Customer area via CrispWhiteMain.php (additional file to Main.php within the module) Pretty much as outlined at the end of this earlier post:
https://forum.x-cart.com/showpost.php?p=400468&postcount=4. All modifications applied via this module run perfectly without any faults or issues so far
However .less files MUST still be added as modified .less
core files currently, because modified .less files still don't work for some reason if / when called by a custom module... This is fine, just a bit tedious during upgrades.
Read earlier in this thread about .less files and then this previous answer, which is yet to be 100% confirmed but does make sense;

We then had the later thread update c/w download which provides a different method (more effective in theory) for making our custom module work in-conjunction with Crisp White Skin. Next message >>>
