NOTE:

  • After connecting with Filezilla for example you will see this:

  • In right window pane, this is the server, double click htdocs to open root folder/directory - dependent on server this might be named public_html or httpdocs
    • NOTE: This procedure installs Phoenix Cart in the root folder/directory so the website home page will show as yoursite.com/index.php in the web browser.
    • Some users may wish to install in a sub-folder/directory so the website home page will show as yoursite.com/yoursubdirectory/index.php in the web browser.
    • If this is required a sub-folder/directory must be created in htdocs, named and opened before the next step.
  • In left window pane, this is your local computer, navigate to and open the unzipped/extracted Phoenix folder/directory.
  • Select all folders and files in the unzipped PhoenixCart-master folder/directory. Ensure you have them all selected and have not missed any.
  • Right click and click Upload to transfer all files from your computer to the server.
  • FTP software will indicate progress - it can take several minutes to complete transfer.


When the FTP software indicates the upload is complete, proceed to the next step.
