Installing the extension

Use these steps to install the extension on your store.

Prepare for installation​

  1. Back up your store's database and web directory.
  2. Log in to the SSH console of your server and navigate to the root directory of the Magento 2 store.
  3. Copy the installation instructions from the page My Downloadable Products to the SSH console and press ENTER.
Note

To manually install the module in the app/code/ directory, download the archive from My Downloadable Products -> View & Download, unpack it, and copy the contents to Magento's root directory. Then, access your server via SSH, navigate to the Magento 2 root, and follow the installation steps.

Execute the following set of commands to install​

  1. Run the command to enable the extension:

    php -f bin/magento module:enable Mirasvit_Core Mirasvit_BlogMx Mirasvit_Comment Mirasvit_Vote

  2. Run the command to install the extension:

    php -f bin/magento setup:upgrade

  3. Run the command below to set up dependencies:

    php -f bin/magento setup:di:compile

  4. Run the command for clean cache:

    php -f bin/magento cache:clean

  5. Deploy static view files:

    rm -rf pub/static/*; rm -rf var/view_preprocessed/*;
    php -f bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy

If you are using the Hyvä theme​

Hyvä support ships inside the extension. There is no compatibility package to install — Blog MX, Comments and Vote each register themselves with the Hyvä theme build.

  1. Check the file app/etc/hyva-themes.json. If there are no entries for the mirasvit/module-blog-mx, mirasvit/module-comment and mirasvit/module-vote packages, run the following command:

    php -f bin/magento hyva:config:generate

  2. Generate the styles for the installed extension:

    cd /path/to/theme/web/tailwind/;
    npm run build-prod

  3. Deploy the static view files:

    cd /path/to/project/;
    rm -rf pub/static/*; rm -rf var/view_preprocessed/*;
    php -f bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy

  4. Clear the cache:

    php -f bin/magento cache:clean
