System Requirements

Here we will guide you through the installation process of our extension. First off, open FileZilla, log in to your host as follows:

In the above example we switched the local site to the extension directory, and the remote site to the code directory. Now on the remote site window, inside app/code directory, create a folder named Magenest and go inside it. Now on your local site window, right click on Wrapper extension and click Upload. The extension will be uploaded onto your host in a few minutes.

The second method will require you to compress the extension into .zip or .tar.gz format, then execute the following command in your Command Line/Terminal:

    scp <path to your extension> <ssh server>:<path to Magenest directory>

Then log into your ssh server, go to Magenest directory and execute the following command to decompress the module:

    unzip <.zip compressed extension> 

Or

    tar -xzvf <.tar.gz compressed extension>

Now go to your Magento root directory, say it's named magento2, and execute the following commands:

    sudo chmod -R 755 .

    php bin/magento setup:upgrade

    php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy

    sudo chmod -R 777 var pub

After running all these, your Command line/Terminal window might look like this:

Finally, you need to flush the cache by either type this into the Command Line/Terminal:
