I feel so dumb but... Help installing Super Orders?

Hello,

I am trying to install Super Orders and I'm having an issue which is really frustrating me since I don't know the first thing about PHP or SQLs or anything...

The directions say this:

  1. Unzip this package to a temp directory
  2. FTP the contents of [temp directory]/1. Install_Files into the root of your Zen Cart
    installation (i.e. your "/catalog" folder). The files are already arranged.
  3. FTP the contents of [temp directory]/2.Required_CoreEdits into the root of your Zen Cart. installation (i.e. your "/catalog" folder). The files are already arranged. Because these are core files, they have been separated. If you have installed any mods which make changes to the files in this folder, you will need to use a tool like Winmerge or Beyond Compare to incorporate those changes into these files.
  4. Run the super_orders_sql.sql file on your database. This will work with the "SQL Query Executor" tool in the Admin (Tools > Install SQL Patches).

Ok, I've read these about 50 times and don't get it... FTP the Install_Files and Required_CoreEdits files to the root folder of the store, done (Sample says catalog, mine is named store). Then I run the super_orders_sqp.sql file through the Install SQL Patches tool and it gave me a green bar saying 44 items were processed or something like that. Alright, looks good so far...

...

... Uh... Now what?

There are no Super Orders options in any of my admin menus. Is there some super common install step I'm supposed to know how to do? Am I supposed to run one of these PHP files? If so which one? None of them are named install or anything... :unsure: I'm completely at a loss of what to do next and I feel pretty stupid for it. :cry:

Re: I feel so dumb but... Help installing Super Orders?

sorry that's not what i meant, im pretty sure what it means by these instructions is copy the files inside the folder folder named /1_Install_Files/ to your root of the catalogue. The same with the other folder

im also guessing that if your admin folder is not called admin then rename the folder to your admin folder before you transfer

before you do this, backup your website as this will overwrite quite a few files

Rob

maybe post a thread in the support for the mod, this can be found in the readme.html doc to check that i am correct
