Is it possible to rewrite a controller in a community module that is already rewriting a core controller?
I have the syntax correct as it is working in other rewrites but in this specific case the rewrite is not working.
There is a community module rewriting the cart controller and i want to rewrite the community modules cart controller.
It would be like this:
My Controller -> Community Modules cart controller -> Mage Cart controller

This may depend on how the extension is overriding the controller but here goes. You need to add in your module's
config.xml
file, this as a child of the<config>
node.If the community module overrides the cart controller in the same way as described above then it works. If it uses the 'old method' with
<from>
and<to>
tags then it won't work.(and I have no idea on how to override that).
[EDIT]
Make sure that your controller is also named
CartController
and it's located inNamespace/Module/controllers/CartController.php
. Also you might want to make your local module depend on the community module but I don't think this is mandatory. Also make your controller class extend the community module controller.
