2. Define a hook

Define a hook including the following code snippet to your application/config/hooks.php file:

$hook['display_override'] = array(
		'class' => 'HulkTemplate',
		'function' => 'exec',
		'filename' => 'HulkTemplate.php',
		'filepath' => 'hooks'
	);

3. Upload provided files

Upload the provided files to your project:
