questions about installing image contribution

[everbeta]

i am trying to intall image contribution which can be found at http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contri...ch,extra+images

 

first i try to install Extra Images 1.4 by ***orchid*** at 16th Nov, i follow the instructions in the file install.txt, and i get a question.

 

do we do all the changing on the original oscommerce installation files?? i mean the oscommerce installation files which is used to set up my website, but my website has been setup already, do i need to remove and reinstall my website from the very beginning?? i ask this because i can not find some files per the instructions on my website via ftp. but i can find the file on the local oscommerce installation pacakge.

 

for exmaple,

 

/catalog/includes/filenames.php

(just before the last ?>)

define('FILENAME_POPUP_EXTRA_IMAGES', 'popup_extra_images.php'); //Added for Extra Images Contribution

 

the folder /catalog/includes/ can not be found on my website root folder WWW, but i can find it on the local installation files. (oscommerce-2.2ms2-060817\catalog\includes)

 

if the instruction is made on the local installation pacakge, that is really terrrible because we need to set up the website again??

 

please help!!

If you go to your catalog with www.yoursite.com instead of www.yoursite.com/catalog then just drop catalog from the path in directions.

Dear Bill,

 

Thank you for your message, however, i am sorry i am not sure i understand what you mean?? do you mean the HTTP folder?

 

however, the instruciton mentions the FTP folder, NOT HTTP, via FTP to upload/modify the files.

 

could you please let me more about your method?

 

thank you

What Bill means is that in your FTP, look for "filenames.php" in your "Includes" subdirectory.
