Unable to override woocommerce_cart_tab_button in cart_tab_templates.php

Hi, Koster!

Edit: Same with class-cart-tab-frontend.php.

I am having a bit of difficulty overriding the default woocommerce_cart_tab_button function.

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare woocommerce_cart_tab_button() (previously declared in C:\path\wp-content\plugins\woocommerce-cart-tab\includes\cart-tab-templates.php:9) in C:\path_to_theme\cart_tab_customisations.php on line 3

It is rather perplexing because you've wrapped the function in discussion inside of the function_exists clause. It should have overridden the default function, but instead I am hit with the error above. I have had no problems overriding the default WordPress or even WooCommerce functions using the same technique.

Let me know if you need additional details. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hmm, perhaps you're redeclaring after the original function is defined? I think themes are loaded after plugins. Try wrapping your new declaration inside a separate function hooked into init.
