La pestaña "Selección" le permite descubrir nuevos módulos y servicios para mejorar su tienda. Aquí encontrará un listado de todos los módulos que puede instalar (no aparecerán lo que ya haya instalado).


Esta selección de módulos recomendados se basa en su país, idioma y versión de PrestaShop. Esta sección incluye los módulos más populares de nuestro mercado Addons y módulos gratuitos de asociados.


 

¿Cuál es la diferencia entre un módulo y un servicio?

Un módulo le permite añadir funcionalidades a su tienda como nuevas modalidades de pago, sincronizar el inventario y pedidos con sus sistema de logística, exportar su catálogo a guías inteligentes de compras, y otras muchas otras opciones de interés para usted y sus clientes. Los módulos son básicamente un archivo que debe instalarse dentro de su tienda PrestaShop.

Por otro lado, un servicio es intangible: no tiene que instalar nada en su tienda para que el servicio funcioneEn su lugar, puede que tenga que firmar un contrato con el proveedor de servicios. Los servicios se indentifican con el botón "Descubrir".

 

Búsqueda de un módulo o servicio

Si tiene una necesidad específica y está buscando un módulo que la ayude, hay dos formas de buscar un módulo:

  • Examinar las categorías. Al hacer clic en "Categorías" encontrará una lista de categorías: los módulos son organizados en categorías funcionales, dependiendo las mejoras que quiera realizar en su tienda. ¿Desea mejorar la navegación en su tienda o está interesado en implementar algunas nuevas acciones de marketing? Una vez que haya terminado de examinar las categorías, seleccione "Todas las categorías" para restablecer la selección predeterminada.
  • Utilizar la barra de búsquedaSi tiene una necesidad específica en mente, también puede escribir palabras clave en la barra de búsqueda, en el lado superior derecho de la página. Por ejemplo, si teclea "Newsletter", encontrará todos los módulos y servicios relacionados con los boletines. También puede buscar módulos por su nombre o por autor. Para eliminar una palabra clave, haga clic en su icono de la cruz. Para restablecer la búsqueda, haga clic en la cruz azul en el extremo derecho de la barra.

Puede utilizar la barra de búsqueda y las categorías simultáneamente, para limitar aún más los resultados.



Si su búsqueda no ofrece ningún resultado, un enlace le invita a ir al mercado Addons donde encontrará más módulos.

Filtrar módulos

Además de la búsqueda, también puede ordenar módulos para encontrar mejor lo que necesita, con estos filtros:

  • Nombre. Ordenar los módulos por su nombre, de A a Z.
  • Precio creciente. Mostrar primero los módulos con el precio más bajo. Los módulos gratuitos se mostrarán en la parte superior de la lista, ordenados de A a Z.
  • Precio decreciente. Mostrar primero los módulos con el precio más alto.
  • Popularidad. Ordenar los módulos y servicios de acuerdo con su calificación en Addons. Los módulos integrados se mostrarán primero, ya que no tienen ninguna calificación disponible en Addons.

What is a built-in module?

Built-in (or native) modules are available within your shop from its set-up. Some are already pre-installed to help your shop running (you will find them in the "Installed modules" tab), while other are available in the "Selection" tab. You can choose to install it or not, depending on your needs. They cover the basics of e-commerce and come for free.

Displaying results

There are two options to choose from to display the list of modules.

  • Card view. Each module is displayed in a card, providing more space for information display.
  • List view. Each module is displayed in a row, allowing to display more modules at the same time. You will find the same information as the card view, except for the popularity

By clicking on "Read more" you will find more details on each module or service.

Modules and service information

Each module comes with a set of information to guide you in your choice. 

  • Module name. The name for the module.
  • Module author. The author of the module. 
    • "By PrestaShop" is used for both built-in modules or for modules made by PrestaShop and sold on Addons marketplace. 
    • "By PrestaShop partners" identifies modules developed by PrestaShop's institutional partners, and they often come for free. 
    • "By Community developer" includes individual contributors or agencies from the PrestaShop community whose modules are available on Addons.

  • Short description. A short sentence to describe the module or service's purpose, and how it can help you

Read more

If the basic information is not enough for you to make a decision, you can click on "Read more" to have more details. A pop-up will open, with an image for the module (its icon or sometimes a screenshot) and several tabs. This information is provided by the module's author, therefore they can vary from one module to another in term of both quantity and quality.

  • Overview. A short description of the module.
  • Additional information. More detailed information.
  • Benefits. What the module will bring to your shop.
  • Features. Which features you can expect from the module.
  • Demo video (optional). A short video presenting the module.
  • Changelog (optional). A list of the novelties from the module's last version. What has been improved or added.

At the bottom of the pop-up window, some badge can appear:

  • Made by PrestaShop. This module has been developed by the PrestaShop team.
  • Official Partner. This module has been developed by a PrestaShop Partner or Partner agency.
  • PrestaShop's Favorite. These modules have been rewarded by the PrestaShop team as particularly simple and useful modules!

Installing or purchasing a module

When you have chosen the module you need, depending on the type of module it is, you can perform three different kinds of actions.

  • Install it. Free modules have an "Install" button. By clicking it, the module will get installed in your shop. Once installed, a new menu will appear to manage your module : you can configure, uninstall, disable, disable on mobile, or reset the module. Read more about these options in the "Installed Modules" section.
  • Purchase it. For paying modules, instead of "Install", the button will display the price of the module. By clicking it, you will be redirected to the Addons page for the module, where you can complete the purchase. Don't forget to tie your shop to your Addons account to automatically retrieve the module in your shop!
  • Discover it. Services display a "Discover" button. By clicking it, you will be redirected to the Addons page for the service, where you can subscribe to the service.

When you have installed a module, you will find it in the list of modules from the "Installed modules" tab, which is the next chapter.

 

Uploading a module manually 

Once you have downloaded a module from the Addons online shop to your computer, it is up to you have it installed on your PrestaShop site.

If you haven't linked you store to your Addons account, there are two ways to install a module: either using the dedicated form or using your FTP client.

Installing using the upload form

To install a new PrestaShop module automatically, click on the "Upload a module" button at the top of the page. A pop-up window will open.


This block enables you to upload the archive file of the module, as downloaded from Addons. You can either upload a zip file, or a tar.gz one (tarball). Simply drop the module's file here, or browse to the file that you downloaded by clicking on "select file". Do not point to the module's uncompressed folder or any of its unpacked files: only the archive file! 

 

Once the file is detected, the installation will start automatically: PrestaShop will upload the module from your computer to its server, unpack it, place the files in the correct location, and update the page, all this in a handful of seconds. PrestaShop will then display "Module installed!".

 

 

Modules are not installed by default: you still have to click the module's "Install" button, and then possibly configure its settings via the "Installed modules" tab.

Once the configuration is complete, be sure to test the module immediately to confirm that it works as planned.

Installing using an FTP client

You can also choose to install a module by yourself, using an FTP client.

To install a new PrestaShop module manually:

  1. Unzip (decompress) the module archive file (.zip or tar.gz). This should result in a new folder.
  2. Using your FTP client, connect to PrestaShop web server, and place the unpacked module folder in PrestaShop's /modules folder.
    Pay attention NOT to upload that folder in another module's folder (which can happen when drag-and-dropping items). Upload both the folder and the files it contains, not just the files.
  3. Go to your back office, in the "Selection" tab.
  4. Locate the new module in the modules list. You might have to scroll down; you can also use the list's search engine, which should give you a dynamically updated list of matching module names.
  5. In the row for the new module, click the "Install" button.
  6. Your module is now installed and should be activated too. If necessary, click on the module's "Configure" link. Also, pay attention to any warning message that might be displayed by PrestaShop.

Once the configuration is complete, be sure to test the module immediately to confirm that it works as planned.

 

 

Modules can come from many sources, and not all of them are reliable. This is why PrestaShop sometimes displays a warning window for "Untrusted" modules – that is, modules that have not been verified by PrestaShop through its Addons marketplace. This screen window lets you choose whether to proceed with the installation with no further notification or to stop the installation process.

Installing a native module or a module obtained through Addons will not trigger the display of this window.
