UPload to the ‘/wp-content/plugins/’ directory

  • OK, folks, I live in Costa Rica and am attempting this on my own. How do I “Upload the folder ‘wp-e-commerce’ to the ‘/wp-content/plugins/’ directory? I am making a tourism page and would like it to end up like the TableTalk.com site. I know ambitious…. I have the file in my downloads, is the said directory on my site or the WP.org site? How do I get the download to where it needs to be? Mil gracias, Elena

  • hi

    The /wp-content/plugins/ folder is on your webserver, within the folder that WordPress was installed into.

    There is now an easier way to install plugins, from within the WordPress admin area. In the left column in the Plugins section, there is an option for AddNew. Click it. You will see a search box – enter wp-e-commerce there and Search Plugins. You will see wp-e-commerce appear in the list. At the very right of the line is a link that says Install. Click it and the plugin will download itself and install itself on your website. This is a lot easier than having to FTP the files to the server.

    Hi

    Where is the Plugins section within the WordPress admin area? I can’t seem to find it.

    If you have a free wordpress.com blog, you won’t have a Plugins section.
