Tutorial Text

  • In this tutorial we will be installing a component manually using the Joomla component installer. This is helpful if your host does not support gunzip.
  • First you will need to extract your file to your local hard drive.
  • After the extracting is complete we will copy the folder to our clipboard. If you are developing on a remote server this would be where you would connect to FTP and upload the files.
  • Now we copy the folder to our Joomla folder. The folder to copy to is administrator/ components/ com_install/ component
  • Now our folder is in the correct spot. Let's go back over to Joomla.
  • To begin navigate to Installers >> Components.
  • Type the path to the folder you just uploaded/copied in the Install directory field and click Install.
  • This screen will show you details about the component you just installed.
  • When you are ready click Continue...
  • We can now see Simpleboard has been installed.
