Using a filter to change a path

Question

I know this is probably basic Wordpress coding but how would I achieve this?

Use the filter “wcvendors_pro_table_display_rows_path” — and return a path to the new template file. (/plugins/wc-vendors-pro/public/class-wcvendors-pro-table-helper.php Line #328.)

Line #328 of plugins/wc-vendors-pro/public/class-wcvendors-pro-table-helper.php is:

public function display_rows() {

        include apply_filters( 'wcvendors_pro_table_display_rows_path', 'partials/helpers/table/wcvendors-pro-table-data.php' );

    }

I have created a duplicate of wcvendors-pro-table-data.php in my child theme.

Create the template you want to use, say wc-vp-table-rows.php, put it in your theme, and add the following to your functions.php:

add_filter( 
    'wcvendors_pro_table_display_rows_path', 
    fn() => locate_template( 'wc-vp-table-rows.php' )
);

locate_template() returns a complete path; it also searches in parent and child themes.
