  • Search field. Modules are displayed while you type their name, which makes it even more intuitive and fast.
  • Sort selectors. The list automatically reloads when you make a selection, and displays modules according to all the current settings.
    • Installed & Not Installed. Most of the time, you will want to perform an action on an installed module, or install a new one. This filter is the most commonly used.
    • Enabled & Disabled. Installed module are the only ones that can be configured, hence the importance of this selector.

Info

Top ranking modules from Addons can be promoted to your module list, depending on your country settings. They appear among regular modules, but their action buttons are not labeled "Install" but instead "30 €", for instance. Clicking on the button takes you to the module's Addons page, from which you can log in, buy and download the module. From there on, you can install it on your shop.

Connecting to Addons

In the basic configuration, the modules' page will only let you update the default modules, the ones that were included in PrestaShop. If you have bought modules on Addons, the PrestaShop marketplace, and you want those to update automatically too, you have to connect your PrestaShop to Addons.

Below the list of module categories, simply fill in the form with your Addons connection details, and PrestaShop what modules you have bought:
