How to install a new template (Fashion Mosaic)
 

Hey,
I purchased from x-cart store a template Fashion Mosaic to my x-cart 4.0.17 store,

but I don't know to install it?

Thanks,
Itamar.

Read the instructions included with the files.

I do not understand how they want us to copy the files to our existing xcart directory.

Do I need to open each folder separate and copy the files over. For instance, only a small portion of the files are needing to be overwritten. Do I need to browse into each folder both on my existing xcart and the new skin files and copy the ones over?

Installation of a new skin
 

I too have just purchase some skins that I wish to use on my cart.
There were no accompanying notes for installation and all I got was a file called skins_for_x-cart-4[1].0.17_Flexy_Rectangles

can you advise?

If you unzip the file, everything you need is inside.

Skin Installation
 

It is not a zip file from the download area in my communicationarea. The download is directly a .tpl file only.

It reads: skins_for_x-cart-4.0.17_Flexy_Rectangles.tgz

"Flexy Rectangles" template set for X-Cart 4.0.17

That is a zip file.

Zip File .tgz
 

What program do you need to open and read a tgz file. I have never heard of it. I thought .zip was a zip file?

WinRar or you can uncompress the file directly on your server via Shell access.

Installing a new skin
 

OK, I have downloaded the program and have "unzipped" the files which all look great. I have read the assistance file but i am still not exactly sure where to put this template files. I have a parent folder called x-cart, then templates, then 4 or 5 options, then inside those the files.

The installation notes suggest I will be able to select the one I wish to use following uploading (or copy/pasting) them onto the server. At what folder level should I post them? And in which directory?

Is it posible to do this via the edit template part of the admin or should I do it directly onto the server. Sorry for being a little less techie than is necessary here
