Notice: This method does not require FTP Settings in Opencart dashboard and the extension does not have any install.php, install.sql but file name must have extension ocmod.xml, so you should rename if file name does not like that.

Step 1: You extract the downloaded extension, then rename install.xml into install.ocmod.xml, and upload module core files (admin, catalog) to the root directory (public_html folder) of your Opencart store.

Step 2: Choose ocmod.xml file (if it exists) in module contained folder and upload to Extension Installer.
