General Information
Flow is a responsive theme for all OXID eShop editions.
Installation
Step 1: Select the appropriate branch
Currently there are 3 main branches for Flow:
- Branch
b-1.0contains Flow for OXID eShop version 4.10/5.3 - Branch
b-2.xcontains Flow for OXID eShop version 6.0.0 - Branch
b-3.xcontains Flow for OXID eShop compilation 6.1 and 6.2 - Branch
mastercontain Flow for OXID eShop master branch latest commits
Step 2: Get the source code
Check out the appropriate branch for your OXID eShop version into the shop's Application/views directory:
cd DOCUMENT_ROOT/Application/views/
git clone -b BRANCH_NAME https://github.com/OXID-eSales/flow_theme.git flow
You should now have a new folder DOCUMENT_ROOT/Application/views/flow.
Step 3: Prepare the database (< version 6.0 only)
In order to install the theme options, import the setup.sql into your database.
Option 1: Console
mysql -u MYSQL_USER -p SHOP_DATABASE < flow/setup.sql
Option 2: Shop Admin: Service -> Tools
If you have a local copy of flow files, go to Service -> Tools in Shop Admin, upload flow/setup.sql and click "start update" button
Step 4: Prepare the out folder
The out folder can be prepared in two possible ways. The first option is to use symbolic links, the second is to copy. Using a symbolic link is strongly recommended, as otherwise you would have do the copying everytime Flow is updated.
Option 1: Symbolic Linking
Link the theme's out directory to the out directory of the shop:
ln -s ../Application/views/flow/out/flow ../../out/flow
Option 2: Copying
Copy theme's out directory to shop:
cp -r flow/out/flow ../../out/flow
You now should be able to do cd ../../out/flow.
Step 5: Activate theme
Log into the admin panel, go to Extensions → Themes → Flow and press the Activate button. Clean the cache and off you go, my friend!
