Installing the X-ShowRoom add-on module

To install the module:

  1. Obtain the X-ShowRoom add-on module distribution package by downloading it from the File Area section of your X-Cart Account. The distribution package you need is contained in the archive file x-showroom-x.y.z.tgz where x, y and zstand for X-Cart version (These need to match the version of X-Cart on which your store is based).
  2. Copy the distribution package to the X-Cart root directory on your server or hosting account.
    • If you use a Windows-based server, or a UNIX-based server without terminal access:
    a) Decompress the archive with the X-ShowRoom distribution package to a directory on your system using your favorite compression program (WinZIP or any other archiver with support for TAR files).
    b) Use an FTP client to upload all the files contained in the archive (retaining the directory structure) to the X-Cart root directory on your server or your hosting account.
    • If you use a UNIX-based server with terminal access:

    tar -xzvf x-showroom-x.y.z.tgz
    Important: Make sure you keep the directory structure while unpacking and uploading the distribution package, otherwise some necessary files can be overwritten!
