I noticed some people had problems in the comments here. I kept getting an error about the Class MyPackage_Catalog_Block….etc not being found in Layout.php – I found that this is due to the fact that you have to change the class name in the actual php file that you are editing. For instance with the Breadcrumbs.php example, I had to change “class Mage_Catalog_Block_Breadcrumbs extends Mage_Core_Block_Template” to “class MyPackage_Catalog_Block_Breadcrumbs extends Mage_Core_Block_Template” – this makes sense but is easy to overlook I think, even though this is indicated in the first thing that Pratt says in this article.
