child theme does not override $THEME->layouts

[tieppt]

Hi man, thank you for your work.
I face an issue:
when i develop a child theme from theme_bootstrap, I have override layout of frontpage to another file, but my site does not apply this file. It still use default.php in parent theme.

If you want your child theme to use another layout for the frontpage you should copy the config.php from theme_bootstrap. Adapt it to your new child theme and specify the alternative frontpage layout file.
Once you have done that you should be able to work with your new frontpage layout.

@bmbrands i'm already copy new config.php to my child theme, then settings up new layout to override base frontpage but it does not work. when i create new default.php in my child theme, it work, but i wanna use difference file for frontpage, not default.php

It's hard for me to tell what's wrong. Do you have your code on Github?

@tieppt Have you edited your layouts array in your config.php to tell it to use a different layout file than default.php?
