Override icons

[trych]

Is there an easy way to override icons?

Say I want to override all php icons and replace them by some own alternatives. I have tried the override approach that is documented somewhere, where I place a A File Icon folder in Packages and then place my pngs into the corresponding subfolder, but it does not change the icons, I guess it is still grabbing the icons in the packaged default package. Any way to work around this?

Yes, you can. Copy icons from Packages\zzz A File Icon zzz to Packages\User and modify them there.
In your case the files are file_type_php.png, file_type_php@2x.png and file_type_php@3x.png (from single or from multi folder).

Thanks, works perfectly.
One last question: Is it important to copy the entire Packages/zzz A File Icon zzz folder to Packages/User or can I now delete all files in there (except my new PHP icons)?

You don't need to copy the entire folder. You can overwrite only some icons.
