plug in download in mod folder and unzip help
Last updated by pbhandari13 Comments (7)
Hi all,
I have failed several attemts of downloading plugins in the mod folder directly and unzip it there in Cnet. First of all I am not seeing an option download there, and second I am not seeing any option to copy from local computer and paste in Mod folder. I am not sure what is missing. Any step wise help would be much appreciated. I got some responses in my other posts but I failed on my part.

Em cada publicação plugins, tem a opção de download. Esta opção fica ao lado do título do plugin!
Eu decidi criar um pequeno tutorial para ajudar você!

3. The plugin is downloaded as a zip file. Then, unzip it in the same folder it is, the "mod".
4. Now go to your site, and click on: Administration> Plugins> Profile Manager and activate the plugin.
cnet?
The most easy approach would be just to download the .zip file here on the website, on the plugin page.
You will have a .zip file now on your computer, extract it. Now you have a directory called 'plugin_name' (of course, the name of the plugin instead of just 'plugin_name'. Now use your FTP software to upload that directory (plugin_name) to the 'mod' folder in your Elgg install.
From now on you can see the plugin name in your admin section of your website under 'plugins', the only thing left is press 'activate'
Thanks for your responses. Let me follow the instructions and see if I succeed. I will post the updates I get.
Hi Gabriel, I am not being able to directly download the profile manager in the server as you have shown in the screen
what i see is the following path of download:
C:\Users\prasad\AppData\Local\Temp\profile_manager_v7.6.1-1.zip\
I use WampServer, my directory is this: C:\wamp\www\elgg\mod
i don't have wamp server. mine is hosted by godaddy.
