Requirements and installation

Requirements

    Joomla: 6.0 or newer PHP: 8.2 or newer, with the mysqli extension YOOtheme Pro: installed and active as the site template JTL shop with a reachable MySQL database

    WirdThe synchronisiertextension …works without Joomla's compatibility plugin. If you have enabled it for other reasons, that does no harm — it is simply not needed here.

    Installation

      Download the installation package plg_system_jtlshop-x.y.z.zip from your customer account on graup-it.de. In the Joomla backend, open System → Install → Extensions. Drag the ZIP file into the upload area or select it via Browse.

      On a first installation the plugin is enabled automatically. You will find it afterwards under System → Plugins as System - JTL Source.

      After the installation an overview panel appears showing the installed version and the entry points to Getting started, Download key and Manual. After an update, the changelog takes the place of "Getting started".

      If the environment does not fit — Joomla too old, PHP too old — the installation stops with a clear message instead of leaving behind an extension that silently fails later.

      After the installation

        Set up the connection to the shop and verify it with the built-in button — see Setting up the shop connection . Without a connection the sources in the builder stay empty. Clear the YOOtheme cache: YOOtheme → Settings → Advanced → Clear Cache. Open a page in the builder — the dynamic content now offers the group Graup-IT with the two sources. Enter your download key for automatic updates — see Download key and updates .

        Uninstalling

        Uninstall the plugin via System → Manage Extensions. The extension creates no tables of its own in Joomla, and it changes nothing in the JTL shop anyway. All that remains are the plugin settings, and those are removed with the uninstallation.

        Remember to remove the database user you created for the connection in the shop as well, once you no longer need it.

        Applies to version 1.12.0.
