OK - shoot, please feel free. I know this is going to be a very stupid question but I can't find the answer anywhere.
I downloaded the side box for payments accepted. However, where do I upload it to get it recognized by my layout page?
Please tell me the right path to upload this file as I am clueless here.
Thanks!
Hi Lavish...
Rule One: BACKUP your site first.
Then, on your local drive, UNZIP the cc-accept mod.
This will unzip the php files into their relevant folders, which have their corresponding folders on your remote server. (ie: the directory "trees" are thereby established on your local drive, to correspond with the appropriate directory trees on your remote server.
(I use Ipswitch's WSFTP PRO to do my FTP work. Suggest you pay the few $$$ for this vital tool.)
Then (AFTER YOU'VE BACKED EVERYTHING UP) simply instruct your FTP client to send the cc-accept folders on your local drive to their corresponding folders on the remote server. You could actually, on your local drive, open each folder (opening up folders along the way until you reach the core php files) then open up the corresponding folders on your server before "porting" the files across, but this should not be necessary with WSFTP PRO. Simply ensure that the FOLDER on your local drive is also visible in the pane displaying your REMOTE server, and then "port" the whole folder. Existing files in your REMOTE won't be erased/overwritten unless there's a fresh file on your LOCAL folder, and all ADDITIONAL files will simply be copied over to their appropriate folder(s).
When the ftp's done, go into the admin console of your zen store and under TOOLS, enable the side box for cc-accept.
You will probably have to tweak the php code a bit to have the sidebox display the cards you accept, and this will also involve uploading appropriate card icons to the images directory. This is fairly straight-forward, and you just copy and tweak the appropriate lines of code in the cc-accept php files to have the html throw up the appropriate images.
