Installing Ubercart

Ubercart is compatible with all Hostvento Hosting accounts. However, you must install it manually.

Although Hostvento Hosting servers are compatible with a wide variety of software applications, we cannot provide troubleshooting assistance for application-specific issues.

To install Ubercart:

1. Use your web browser to visit http://drupal.org/project/ubercart, and then scroll down to the Downloads section.
2. Under Recommended releases, download the zip file for your Drupal version.The following steps describe how to install the Ubercart module on Drupal 7. The exact steps for Drupal 6 differ slightly, but are similar.
3. Log in to your Drupal site as the administrator.
4. On the top menu bar, click Modules.
