Aikau header customisation not working on search page

In Alfresco 5.0.0.5 Enterprise, I customized the header menu by modifying share-header.get.js, e.g.: var sitesMenu = widgetUtils.findObject(model.jsonModel.widgets, "id", "HEADER_SITES_MENU");if (sitesMenu != null){ // Change the widget to our custom menu sitesMenu.name = "alfresco/header/CustomAl

Hello Michael,

see <a href="https://forums.alfresco.com/forum/developer-discussions/web-scripts/share-headergetjs-extension-override-doesnt-always-work">share-header.get.js extension override doesn't always work</a> for the same issue and the suggested solution.
I haven't tested it myself, so can't say anything about the people having issues with David's suggestion.

Regards
Axel

It seems this has worked. I'm a bit surprised this (rather hacky workaround) isn't mentioned anywhere in the official tutorials / docs, when modifying the header you usually want to have it active on all pages.
Anyway, thanks a lot!

This approach vom ddraper works:

(When adding it to your own extension module, pay attention under which exact folder hierarchy the extension files should be placed, just like in ddrapers's jar.)
