3. Extract the package and upload to your store

The package you download from Magebuzz is normally a zip file. You can use any

software like Winrar or Winzip to extract the package into a folder in your computer.

There are various folders in a zip file like app, js, skin or media, etc and these folders

may not be the same among different modules.

Now, use your favorite FTP client to upload or copy all folders in the zip package to your

server, then navigate to the root folder of the Magento installation.

After that, you can upload the extracted folders directly into the root of your Magento

installation. This process does not overwrite any files. It just adds new files that come

with the software to the folder structure.

If you are using Filezilla to upload modules, please change the transfer type to Binary

mode.

4. Check and make sure the module is installed correctly

After uploading files, log into your Magento backend. You now should see the extension

in your Magento top menu.

In some cases, some modules do not have top menu in the backend. Therefore, you have

to go to System Configuration Advanced to find out the extension.

If you see the extension in this tab that means it is installed properly.

Now if you get Access denied error when click on the extension, you need to

log out admin panel and log in again to flush Magento backend cache.

5. Enable Magento Cache & Magento Compilation

You are required to enable all caches in the administration panel so that your installation

can come into valid. Once again, Go to System > Cache Management, then select all

caches, select Enable and Submit.
