If you mean to use this feature to implement custom items on WoW clients newer than 3.2.2a, forget it.

Blizz patched later client versions with hard-coded links to the items in the DBC files. You can still use custom items, but it requires reusing deprecated item IDs of the same type. So, if you wanted a custom dagger, you'd have to find an unused ID for a dagger that is no longer in the game.

You'll still have the problem of custom items appearing in the game's UI with a large, red question mark as its icon. To my knowledge, there is no way to fix this except by using a UI add-on that overrides this behavior by forcing the client to use a specified icon.

You could do that, but altering game files is illegal in most countries. Because of that, it is against the rules of this forum to discuss editing DBC files and other game content.

So you want to disallow item_template from overriding the values in the DBCs? That's what that option is talking about.

Or you want the opposite, to override DBC values with item_template values? You can't do that, the client will just ignore them. You would have to patch the client, which, as Nuke said, is discouraged.
