  3. In the admin edit your usergroup to have permissions on feed/kurpirkt, if it doesn't have already.
  4. Go to Extensions -> Feeds and install the module Kurpirkt.lv Product Feed.
  5. Edit module and fill in required entries.
  6. Copy the provided feed link (http://www.yourshop.com/index.php?route=feed/salidzini&code=your-security-code) and submit it at www.salidzini.lv/shops_info.php. Follow the instructions on this page and do not forget to put their banner on your store.

If you are upgrading from previous versions, then it might be neccessary to un-install and install the extension form the admin panel "Product Feeds" section.
