| 5 | 2 | Phil Hodgson | It is possible to override any Rails view in the application by mimicking the directory structure in @app/views@ but under another folder @site_specific/app/views@. For example, to use your own version of @_dashboard.html.erb@ in @app/views/pages@ you would put it in @site_specific/app/views/pages@. |
| 6 | |||
| 7 | You can override the @#{Rails.root}/site_specific@ folder itself with the environment variable TAPESTRY_OVERRIDE_PATH, so that the folder can be left entirely outside of the Tapestry code base. |

| 9 | It is important to understand that including this folder, any subfolders, and all files is _optional_. If you do not wish to override a particular view, leave it out of the override folder. |
