\n

This article covers every overridable template in KiviCare<\/strong> (core) and KiviCare Pro<\/strong>, where each template lives, what data variables it receives, and how to safely override it from your child theme without touching plugin files.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

How the Override System Works<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

All print\/PDF templates use a three-level lookup \u2014 the first file found wins:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. your-child-theme\/kivicare\/<TemplateName>.php   \u2190 your customisation\n2. your-parent-theme\/kivicare\/<TemplateName>.php  \u2190 theme-level fallback\n3. wp-content\/plugins\/<plugin>\/templates\/<TemplateName>.php  \u2190 plugin default\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
\n
Rule:<\/strong> Never edit files inside wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code>. Copy the template to your child theme and edit that copy. Plugin updates will not touch your child theme.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

        How to Override (Filter-Based)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
        Since there is no child theme path, intercept the email HTML with a WordPress filter in your child theme’s functions.php<\/code> or a custom plugin:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
        add_filter('kivicare_prescription_email_html', function( string $html, array $prescriptions ): string {\n    ob_start();\n    \/\/ your custom table markup here, using $prescriptions<\/em>\n    foreach ( $prescriptions as $p ) {\n        echo '<tr><td>' . esc_html( $p->name ) . '<\/td>...<\/tr>';\n    }\n    return ob_get_clean();\n}, 10, 2);\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
        \n
        Note:<\/strong> If the filter kivicare_prescription_email_html<\/code> does not yet exist in the plugin’s source, the alternative is to copy the template into a mu-plugin or custom plugin and include it via a hooked function that replaces the email body before sending.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

          • Test with a real PDF download<\/strong>\u00a0after every change \u2014 mPDF silently ignores unsupported CSS rather than erroring.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • The PDF font is\u00a0DejaVu Sans<\/code>. For languages that require complex script shaping (e.g. Arabic, Gujarati, Hindi), ensure\u00a0autoLangToFont<\/code>\u00a0and\u00a0autoScriptToLang<\/code>\u00a0remain enabled in the PDF config (they are on by default in the invoice controller).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Keep the\u00a0<!-- NO_SIMPLE_TABLES --><\/code>\u00a0HTML comment in templates that use background colours on\u00a0<th><\/code>\u00a0\u2014 removing it will cause header backgrounds to disappear.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • All override templates support the standard\u00a0esc_html()<\/code>,\u00a0esc_url()<\/code>, and\u00a0esc_attr()<\/code>\u00a0escaping functions \u2014 use them on every output to stay XSS-safe.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
