Problems with a New Install with OpenCart using Simple Scripts

ThemeBurn SupportForumsOpenCart ThemesShoppica 2 OpenCart ThemeProblems with a New Install with OpenCart using Simple Scripts

This topic has been marked as not resolved.

I am hoping someone can help me with detailed instructions please. I purchased this a while back and never used it so I am ready to put my website together. I currently have several domains with blue host and used simple scripts to install opencart. I am using the latest version of Shoppica(version 2) and Opencart (1.5.41)
I know I am just reading something wrong and while I don’t consider myself a novice I am far from an expert. I can upload the OpenCart with no problems and log into the admin. I downloaded and unzipped the Shoppica Package but I am confusing myslef. Here are my questions:

Is the only file I need to DELETE from OpenCart the Install directory?

Also, I understand Shoppica wants me to replace the files listed and I can easily ftp the admin,catalog,system and image folders. Where do I put the tb extensions and tb themes folder contents when I ftp upload them. (meaning what folder do I upload them to or do I just put them in a new folder in the directory?)
Also,
where do I put the information from the documentation folder? (what folder do I need to upload them to?)

The instructions given for Installing Shoppica make no mention of these files which has me confused.
I understand the additional folder contains the index file which is the main one but I have tried and tried and tried configuring this and I can’t even get the theme to show up from the drop down menu in opencart once I upload the new files or see Shoppica listed in the extension module so I know I am missing something.

So I have OpenCart installed and downloaded the Shoppica package. I understand how ftp works and how to make changes via ftp just need clear directions for actually installing Shoppica and which files to replace where. Thanks in advance.

Hi mate,

We don’t know if we can explain the installation process in a simpler way, than we have done in the documentation, but:

1) Install OpenCart 1.5.4.1

2) Open the theme package

3) Browse theme package -> shoppica_v.2.2.1 -> OpenCart_v.1.5.4.1 folder

4) Upload all files inside the FILES_TO_UPLOAD folder and overwrite the existing once on prompt. Put the files in the installation root.

5) Browse theme package -> shoppica_v.2.2.1 -> Additional -> OpenCart_v.1.5.4.1 folder and upload the index.php file in the installation root.

6) Go to OpenCart administration and activate the theme from System › Settings › Edit Store settings › Store tab › Template dropdown

7) Go to Extensions › Modules. Here you must install Shoppica 2 CP module (click on the ‘install’ link).

Best,
ThemeBurn team
