how to override list.phtml for custom theme in Magento 2

Question

I have been trying to override

/vendor/magento/module-catalog/view/frontend/templates/product/list.phtml

in my custom theme but with no success.

What I've tried: copied list from above and paste/modified in

app/design/frontend/myvendorfolder/mythemefolder/Magento_Catalog/templates/list.phtml

After that i run php bin/magento cache:clean and

rm -r pub/static/frontend/

var/view_preprocessed/

var/cache/

var/page_cache/

clear my browser cache but it didn't work.

Is this the right way to do it? I have successfully modified Magento_Contact form exactly the same way.

can anyone help please?

thank's in advance.

Answer 1

You did the template override correctly, you missed to have one more folder called "product"

app/design/frontend/myvendorfolder/mythemefolder/Magento_Catalog/templates/product/list.phtml

Answer 2

Make sure that you paste the .phtml file under app/design/frontend/vendor_name/theme_name/Magento_Catalog/templates/product/list.phtml

Also copy the layout files which you need app/design/frontend/vendor_name/theme_name/Magento_Catalog/layout/layoutfile

Then Run php bin/magento cache:flush

Answer 3

Oops I am going to answer my own question as I incorrectly place inside templates but in fact there needs to have another folder called product the key folder missing.

So the final path works for me is: app/design/frontend/myvendorfolder/mythemefolder/Magento_Catalog/templates/product/list.phtml

thank you.
