Installing New Add-On

[weaverlizzie]

accidentally posted this in v3 so am reposting it here where it belongs jb

 

I am installing my first add-on. Everything downloaded ok. Opened the directions to find the following.

 

Using phpMyAdmin or a similar tool, perform the following SQL statements on your database:

 

DROP TABLE IF EXISTS extra_product_fields;

CREATE TABLE extra_product_fields (

epf_id int unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,

epf_order int NOT NULL default 0,

etc.

 

Upon opening phpMyAdmin I am not finding an obvious location to "install, insert, do" however I am supposed to be performing the above many statements.

 

The following steps look familiar and do-able but this first one has me stumped.

 

Any help in this matter would be appreciated.

Click on the database name in the left column. Now you should have some tabs on top, click on "Import". There is a "Browse" button that will let you find the .sql file.

 

Alternatively, you can click the "SQL" tab and copy/paste the sql code.

Thank-you. I think it worked. I'll see when I get the rest of the steps completed. jb
