Overriding Morph's block layouts via your themelet

There are times where you may need to adjust or extend the html code that Morph automatically creates for you. In these cases, all you need to do is copy the include file from Morph to your themelet.

For example, if you wanted to make changes to the main block, you would simply copy the /templates/morph/core/includes/mainbody.php and save it to your /morph_assets/themelets/[yourthemelet]/includes/mainbody.php.

Once you have copied the file you are wanting to override to the themelets includes folder, you will need to click the top right "Save" button in Configurator in order to create an alias to the new include location.

Once thats done, you're free to make whatever changes you find necessary. This is simple yet effective way to keep your changes separate from the framework and safe from upgrades.
