How do I install a Mod?

[zzzoom]

I searched the site, but could not find anything specific to installing a "Gift Wrapping" mod.

I have my site backed up, downloaded the gift wrapping mod, but am leary about where to put the files and if I need to modify anything. Still a newbie, so I don't want to mess anything up on the site. Also, it says install in the root directory of the shop, but I think there were some changes made and I am not sure if it will go into my root dir or ? it also suggest to try on a non live site. Can I use the backup which resides on my system? But if so, how do I access the admin page? Or do I create a TEST DIR? Confused!

Any advice?

Doesn't it have a Readme file with instructions?

It does have a README. If the readme doesn't make sense, here's the pre-readme. :)

If this doesn't make sense, you should hire someone off the Commercial Help Wanted forum to walk you through it.

Yes, it does, and I am sure it is thorough, but I am just a litle concerned about doing it myself, even though sometimes I DO enjoy a little challenge.

I am also concerned about my file structure and where to put. I had someone do some work for me a while nback and the DIR stucture seems to be different. Yes, there is an ADMIN and an INCLUDES, but not sure why this is like this and not sure which DIR to install

tx swguy, it does make some sense to me, but not totally.

I guess if my site is backed I should be ok...I HOPE! ! !

It isn't totally important, but I would like to have the module work.

I would even hire you, but my budget is pretty tight right now
