I've downloaded BackUp ZC and Easy Populate and I'm worried about #%@*&! up the installs.
I'm sure I'm not supposed to overwrite existing files on the server, but the way I read the install directions, it almost sounds like it.
Do I go into my YOUR_ADMIN folder (obviously not what I call it), open each individual folder, and copy each set of files to the corresponding folder, going as deep into the file structure as necessary to not overwrite existing files (Example: the local file MYADMIN/easypopulate.php copies to MYADMIN/, the folder MYADMIN/includes/boxes copies as an entirety into MYADMIN/includes (since there's no existing MYADMIN/includes/boxes folder on the server), etc.
It just sounds like it would be easy to miss a file along the way, especially on the really deep folders (e.g. copying the file MYADMIN/includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/easypopulate.php to the server).
Sorry if this sounds stupid, but I'm a rookie and could use a little hand-holding.
BackUp ZC has this for installation:
-----------------------------------------------
Unzip backup_zc_v???.zip file to a temp area on your local computer.
Rename the YOUR_ADMIN folder to match the admin folder name that you are using on your Zen Cart site.
Upload all files from the newly renamed "admin" folder as-is to your server, retaining folder structures.
-----------------------------------------------
Easy Populate says this:
-----------------------------------------------
1) Change the name of the "admin" directory in this package to suit your zencart installation's renamed admin directory
2) The temp folder is configured to reside in your store directory. If you store is not in the
site root (eg. /mystore/) then the temp directory must also go in this directory.
3) If you want to re-name the uploads (temp) folder, ensure that you configure Easy Populate to
reflect this change after installation
4) Upload all files in their respective directories.
