I have replaced the vendor/magento/module-wishlist/Block/Customer/Wishlist.php for my own app/code/myVendor/myModule/Block/Customer/Wishlist.php
I have written in the app/code/myVendor/myModule/etc/di.xml:
<preference for="Magento\Wishlist\Block\Customer\Wishlist"
type="myVendor\myModule\Block\Customer\Wishlist"/>
The only modification of the new block is:
<?php
/**
* Copyright © 2013-2017 Magento, Inc. All rights reserved.
* See COPYING.txt for license details.
*/
namespace myVendor\myModule\Block\Customer;
class Wishlist extends \Magento\Wishlist\Block\Customer\Wishlist
{
/**
* Preparing global layout
* @return void
*/
protected function _prepareLayout()
{
parent::_prepareLayout();
$this->pageConfig->getTitle()->set(__('My Backorders'));
}
}
Also, I have modified the layout xml in order to remove some elements.
The new file is in app/design/frontend/myThemeVendor/MyThemeModule/Magento_Wishlist/layout/wishlist_index_index.xml
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!--

<page xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:View/Layout/etc/page_configuration.xsd">

</referenceContainer>
</referenceBlock>
</referenceContainer>
<referenceBlock name="customer.wishlist.button.toCart" remove="true"/>
</body>
</page>
The result is this:
It does effectively change the literal even though it doesn't show any product. If I disable the override through the di.xml and leave it back as before:
You can see how it now works pefectly. For me, it makes no sense, hopefully someone can see something.
