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
