4. Login to your webspace then click on file manager.

5. Find the folder you wish to place it in, if as eg. www.yourwebsite.co.uk/shop, just upload to your main site then unzip the file you uploaded and change the name of the folder it then created to www.yourwebsite/"directory" <--- example.

6. Then with your normal c-panel screen, as file manager should be a pop up, select MySQL Databases.

Fixing the Admin 401 Page not found error

DO THIS ONLY IF NEEDED!

What you need to do is replace $_SESSION['ccAdmin'] with $_SESSION['adminUser'] in the following files and you then should be able use the admin panel. I recommend that when your editing the files to replace them push CTRL + F and you can just search for the $_SESSION['ccAdmin'] and it will find it.

\admin\login.php

\admin\logout.php (2 places)

\admin\adminusers\changePass.php

\admin\includes\auth.inc.php (3 places)

\admin\includes\footer.inc.php

\admin\includes\header.inc.php (2 places)

If you're going to do it that way [through file manager in your control panel] why bother with an ftp at all?

Through file manager, you can upload the files, and you can also change their permissions there as well.

No need for an ftp at all.

P.S. That's 14 steps. :sourcerer:
