Always backup your files and database before installing any modification to prevent loosing your data!

1. Choose directory corresponding to your OpenCart version
2. Upload files from directory new into root directory of your OpenCart installation via FTP client

3. Update OpenCart files. There are two ways to do this:
   • use vQmod

   • alter files manually
     • go through all changed described in InstantSearch.xml and make corresponding changes in files of your OpenCart installation

   • extension comes with czech and english language files only. Phrases for any other language need to be added manually
5. If you use custom template, you have to alter its files manually
   • extension should be able to modify most of templates, but if your template is specific, you have to make corresponding changes in you custom template
