Moodle version : 3.6

Theme name: Fordson

File to move in theme: \course\edit_form.php

Function: function definition()


Problem: I had made custom code changes in '\course\edit_form.php' file under class 'course_edit_form' in function definition.  But I want to remove those custom code and override the function in the theme.

Please help me to achieve this. Explain the folder structures that need to be created in the theme. 

Alreadt Tried creating in \themes\fordson\class\output etc.

Can't be done in a theme, only a course format can add items to that file via code in its lib.php file which a theme cannot override.

For information - 3.7 will be coming with the ability to add custom fields to courses in the same way as custom user profile fields can be added now.

Certainly a useful tool I will be looking at for a few purposes.
