trying to make a very simple change to the category page. Before 1.9.2.3 all I had to do was go into local.xml and add:

<catalog_category_default>
 <reference name="root">
 <action method="setTemplate">
 <template>path/to/template.phtml</template>
 </action>
 </reference>
</catalog_category_default>

I've tried doing the same thing in my local.xml but no change has occured. I then tried in my theme.xml specified xml file and again nothing. I'm not sure why it isn't updating. Here's my current file:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<layout>
 <default>
 <reference name="root">
 <action method="setTemplate">
 <template>page/customCategory2col.phtml</template>
 </action>
 </reference>
 </default>
</layout>

my folder structure:

app / design / frontend / lexel / coffeehit / layout / local.xml

I'm not sure what the cause is... I think it's something to do with the new inheritance setup. However, it just doesn't apply the layout change.. I've tried creating a module that uses local.xml to apply updates - nothing. I'm not sure where to even begin to find out how to go about this.. anyone know what to do?

Thanks

Instead of using catalog_category_default generic reference, use catalog_category_view (or catalog_category_layered, if you use layered navigation)

Apply that changes in your theme layout catalog.xml file

app/design/frontend/lexel/coffeehit/layout/catalog.xml

If it does not exist, copy/paste there catalog.xml base/default file, and then apply the changes in your theme's file
