Installing a Magento 2 Extension

To successfully install a Magento 2 extension, please follow these steps:

  1. Backup your data:

    Before proceeding with any installation, it's crucial to back up your web directory and store database. This ensures you have a safe copy of your data if anything goes wrong during installation. 

  2. Access your store root folder: 

    Install the extension by uploading the package into a proper directory:
    path_to_the_store_root_folder/app/code/ZestLogic
    Replace `path_to_the_root_folder` with the path to your store's root folder.

  3. Run the setup upgrade command:

    Execute the following commands to perform the setup upgrade:
    php bin/magento setup:upgrade
    php bin/magento setup:di:compile

    These commands ensure your Magento installation is properly upgraded and ready to incorporate the new extension.

  4. Deploy static content: 

    After upgrading, deploy the static content using the following command:
    php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy -f
    This step is essential for generating static content required for your extension to function correctly.

  5. Flush store cache:

    To prevent any caching issues, flush the store cache:
    php bin/magento cache:clean
    php bin/magento cache:flush
