I would like to rewrite a block in a 3rd party module and have tried creating my own module to achieve this with class rewrites.
My module is called Creed_CustomMenu and the module name of the module whose block I am trying to rewrite is called Wp_CustomMenu.
I thought I had it coded corectly but when I place a break point on PatentStorm on my class none it doesn't break in my class rewrite and none of my changes take effect.
Here is my Code for the Creed_CustomMenu module
app/etc/modules/Creed_CustomMenu.xml
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
<modules>
