Overview

Installation

To install the module you have to perform the following actions:

1. Download the module distributive (x-fcomp-x.y.z.tgz, where x,y,z are the numbers of the module version) from File Area section of your X-Cart Account. 2. Uncompress the x-fcomp-x.y.z.tgz file and copy the files to X-Cart directory.

Note: Please make sure you keep the directory structure during unpacking and uploading, otherwise some necessary files can be overwritten!

3. Run in the browser the installation script http://www.yourhost.com/xcart_dir/install-xfcomp.php 4. Enter your authentication code, accept conditions of the License Agreement and click Next.

Note. The authentication code is issued on completion of X-Cart installation. It is used to prevent unauthorized re-installation of X-Cart and to install X-Cart modules (if you decide to purchase them). If you forgot the code, you may look it up at any time in include/install.php file.

5. Installation script will copy the files and make all the necessary changes in the database. 6. After module Installation is completed, you need to log in as Admin and

  • enable Feature Comparison from the Modules section
  • set the module options in General settings/Feature Comparison options.

X-Cart Gold and Pro module installations do not differ.
