This mod requires VQMOD to be installed.

You can find vqmod at http://vqmod.com

Install Instructions

  1. First upload all files from the upload folder to where your opencart is installed. It should not overwrite any files.
  2. Next log into admin goto system->users->user groups and edit the group you want to be able to configure the module. (usually top adminstrator) make sure that module/order_tracking is checked in both the access and modify permissions boxes, and click save.
  3. Goto extensions->modules and click install next to Order Tracking. This step is important even if you are not going to use the box module as it creates the database talbes needed for the rest of the tracking to work.
  4. Click edit next to order tracking.
  5. If you have seo urls turned on and your store is in a subdirectory like http://www.domain.com/store/ then check the checkmark at the top. Otherwise leave it unchecked.
  6. Click add module and fill out the information to add the module to various pages wherever you want it.
