I have Magento already installed and I followed the instructions here http://www.joomlart.com/documentatio…emes/jm-crafts to install the theme. I was kind of confused about how to install the extensions.. The instructions under "II. JoomlArt Magento Extension -- Userguide" were the same as for installing the theme? Basically what I did was I uploaded the two folders — app and skin from the zip inside mage_tpl folder. The theme is showing up fine, but I don’t see any of the extensions in the configuration page. Anyone know what I’m doing wrong?

You can see our extensions in folder "mage_ext". To install them, please extract them and commit to your magento root.
Thanks for the reply. I’m not really sure what you mean by "commit to your magento root"?
It means the root folder where you put your theme on the server
Really? That doesn’t sound right to me.. Wouldn’t I end up with a root directory of:
app/
js/
JmBasetheme.v1.1.8/
JmMasshead.v1.0.1/
JmMegamenu.v1.2.6/
JmProduct.v1.3.0/
JmQuickview.v1.1.4/
JMSlideshowV2.v1.1.3/
lib/
media/
skin/
var/
So you’re saying all I have to do is just upload them to there, and that’s it?
@ yvanna,
We are sorry if our instruction is not clear enough. We did not mean to extract extension package into the root folder like you mentioned above:
app/
js/
JmBasetheme.v1.1.8/
JmMasshead.v1.0.1/
JmMegamenu.v1.2.6/
JmProduct.v1.3.0/
JmQuickview.v1.1.4/
JMSlideshowV2.v1.1.3/
lib/
media/
skin/
var/
You should extract each zip file of each extension and you will see that inside each extension, there are folder like /app, /skin, …, you will go to each of this folder and copy files/folders inside into appropriate folder in your site.
Let’s take JM Slideshow extension as an example, after downloading and extract the zip file of this package, you will see folder: /app/code/local/JoomlArt/JmSlideshow/…
You just need to copy this JmSlideshow folder into this directory in your site: /yoursite_root_folder/app/code/local/JoomlArt/
and the same with /skin, /js, … folders.
Remember to flush magento cache once done.
In case that extensions still don’t appear in configuration page, you can PM me admin and ftp credentials of site you’re working on, I will check it for you.
