Can any of you advise where is right place to download from?

Thanks in advance.

I have seen some cases, where a VqMod Extension was incomplete, in my case in a MASTER Version, the entire install Sub was missing. But you can create a vqcache Directory manually, if it's the only thing, missing, after you installed the Extension.

But I was going to advise you, to download MaxD's famous VqMod-Pro !
JUST RENAME the OC Default JSON File first, on the server, before uploading the VqMod Content,
to have it back, if you, for what reason ever, decide to remove the VqMod_Pro again.
---
/system/helper/json.php (php file to be renamed first, to have it as backup...)
---
and here is the Extension, as advertized in the Extension Section:
http://www.opencart.com/index.php?route ... n_id=24508
---
I added ONE Percentage Point to my 90+ GTMetrix JSON Results with this Thing!

Good Luck ;)

https://github.com/vqmod/vqmod/releases ... 1-opencart

The ../vqmod/vqcache/ folder is created on first use rather than being in the download.

Thank you grgr, This is the place I downloaded from. Missing file. I do not know if they expected users to create the file by self. Will try. Thanks again.

Thank you Ernie!
I will try. It seems better than the other because doesn't need to edit file codes. I need it for running UPS Deluxe extension.

Hi Ernie,

I don't see install directory for VQMOD PRO in your zipped files too.

Do I need to upload "system" folder too? The problem is opencart already has this same folder name, it is conflict to put in same place.

Please advise. Thanks in advance!

vQmod Pro installation is extra-easy. Just upload files to your shop (overwriting files). Open any page and you will see the message, that vQmod Pro is installed, or instructions to change required files rights.
SORRY, my mistake, I forgot, VqMod-Pro does not longer require, to be installed, as I have found out/recalled, by reading on the extension Page. (progressing Alzheimer, I assume... :crazy: ) And to make sure, I just removed everything, exept for the VqMod's, I installed afterwards, and reuploaded VqMod Pro. Then, I just called my Shop Url, and the result can be seen on the Image below!

And, as I mentioned above already, you need to upload the VqMod-Pro Folder SYSTEM as well, because it contains the JSON FIle, in the system/helper/... Sub, wich YOU HAVE TO rename first, in your Server Shop .../system/helper/... Section, before uploading ANYTHING.
It will NOT ADD any other system or helper Sub-Folder, if one already exists, by Nature of Things !!

Ernie
PS: I already removed the install section from the zip again, as well as the link in my Posting further above. ;)
Unfortunately, the old post has been quoted..., still containing it. But since it's fixed now, no problem.

Hello IP_CAM,

You did not answer my question. Since Opencart already has "system" holder in root, how can I upload VQMOD-PRO's SYSTEM folder in the same place? If you want me to upload folder named "vqmodpro" (contains sub-folders SYSTEM and VQMOD) then I can understand.

In other words, you want me to upload top folder "vqmodpro" OR system and vqmod both folders separately that under vqmodpro ?

Please advise. Thank you in advance!

you upload BOTH Directories, as they are, into your SERVER / SITE / SHOP / ... (Root /Base) Section, that's it!
Exctly, as you would do it with most other Extensions, by use of an FTP Client.
YOU DO NOT upload those directories, in real, since the exist already, you just USE THEM... 8)

As I mentioned , my site/shop already has OC "system" folder, how can I upload another same named "system" folder in same place (xxx.com/system)?

If I can upload top folder "vqmodpro" then it makes sense to me because "system" and "vqmod" are sub-folder of vqmodpro.

Please advise. Thanks!

I understand now. Just to use the existing folder "xxx.com/system", put VQMODpro/system's Helper directory into my existing "system" folder. By the way,

Which folder or file I need to rename first ?

Please advise. Thanks!

Sorry Ernie take you too much time.

I renamed OC's json.php and uploaded json.php file to the same path. (bypass system/help).

I used the zip that downloaded from OC site. Because I don't know why The zip from you (19kb) is larger size than from OC site (14kb).

I will test and post result here later.

Thank you again !

Sorry, but it just does not make much sense, wasting lots of time, trying to assist in a fully unknown Environment.
But you could install the famous free CodeManager, and so allow somebody else, to access your Site, on a temporary bases, to find out, what's going on. At least, if you really plan, to get this done...

Hi IP_CAM,

I changed to another called Easy VQMOD Installer and successfully installed (tested by mysite.com/vqmod/install). Just FTP the folder. Done. Everything looks good so far.

Thank you very much for all of you!
