How to – Install a module of Prestashop

by John on Nov.06, 2009, under Hints/Tips/Hacks

Installing a module on Prestashop is very easy when you know how to do it, but for users who are just starting out with it could be quite daunting if you haven’t a clue what is involved. It is far easier than some of the older e-commerce carts, namely Oscommerce and Zencart.

To install a new PrestaShop module:

1. Unzip (decompress) the module archive file and, using your FTP software, place the folder in your PrestaShop /modules folder, make sure that the folder you are uploading is the folder with the files in it.
2. Go to Back Office >> Modules.
3. Locate the new module in the list, scrolling down if necessary.
4. In the row for the new module, click Install.
5. Locate the module again. If necessary, click >> Configure.
6.Once configuration is complete, be sure to test the module immediately to confirm that it functions as planned.

    Big thank you for this – I’d have been completely stumped without it. :)
