Hi Ashley,
you can do this via your template config.
my $template = Template->new({
INCLUDE_PATH => [ '/home/usr/html',
'/usr/local/html' ],
});
Put the users' directory first, followed by the default directory. TT
will search the directories in order giving the effect you are after.
cheers,

It seems like there might be a way to do this in the include path
ordering or something but all I can up with is something like this:
[% TRY %]
[% INCLUDE user_dir/template_xyz %]
[% CATCH %]
[% INCLUDE default_dir/template_xyz %]
[% END %]
That seems fine for a single case but I want the user to be able to
override pretty much every template (without having to do so; meaning
the defaults are largely going to remain and thus we can't simply choose
one entire set or the other).
Any great ideas?
