Extensions » Install/Uninstall. Now you are in Extensions Manager. You can:
- Upload Package File - select the Phoca Gallery component ZIP file from your disc and click on Upload File&Install.
- Install from Directory - you can upload Phoca Gallery component ZIP file into your server directory and install it from this directory
- Install from URL - you can install it from another URL.
Phoca Gallery should be uploaded and installed on your Joomla! site. The Installation procedure will create a directory called images/phocagallery on your server. If not (there may be possible problems with permissions), you must create it manually via FTP.
