Alertpay Contribution

I am making this post about the above contribution to add alertpay as a payment option.

 

The problem is that the instructions clearly say to upload the files, then log into admin and go to modules>payments to click the install button for alertpay.

 

That's all fine and dandy, except that there is no such button for alertpay. There can't be since the contribution doesn't include an update for admin>includes>modules>payment

 

Since that module would be needed, there is no way for this contribution to install alertpay. Does anyone know how to go about adding the missing update to put the install button on the payment modules page of the admin section?

I haven't checked but does the first download the file and the second just some updates?

payment modules usually only contain 2 files..which goes into

 

includes/modules/payment/

 

and

 

includes/languages/modules/payment/

 

Usually there are no file to add into the /admin/ folder

 

They will still show up in the shop admin under

 

modules >> payment

This does not have either one. It has files for:

 

includes/languages/english/modules/payment

 

Also one like that for each other language. I uploaded those files, but it doesn't add anything to my admin section.

I got so frustrated with this I have just down loaded v1 and 1.01

 

There are 2 files and a read me.

 

If you look at the directory structure when you unzip the contribution and then place each one in the same directory on you site, they appear.

I think the problem is on my end. When I compare the number of files I have in the temporary folder I extracted to,to the number of files in the zip, I seem to be missing one somehow. My hunch is that it will work once I hunt down which file I am missing.

It seems to be working great now. I somehow missed a file when I unzipped it. I deleted everything, did a fresh unzip and upload, and now it's all working great.
