1. Backup your OpenCart installation, just to be safe.



2. Make sure a recent version of vQmod is installed (preferably 2.5.1 or
later). You can check your vQmod version in the /vqmod/vqmod.php file. If you
do not have vQmod installed, you can download it for free from www.vqmod.com



3. Using an FTP application, upload the extension files to your server. To do
this, unzip the .zip bundle, and then upload the contents of the "upload"
folder to the root of your OpenCart installation. (Note: make sure you're
uploading the CONTENTS, and not the "upload" folder itself.) For further
information on how to upload files via FTP, view this video tutorial:

If you prefer the extension be installed for you as a paid service, contact
Clear Thinking at the above e-mail address for details.



4. If updating from a previous version, make sure to click "Save" in the
admin panel to apply any new settings. You can ignore the rest of the
following instructions.



5. If installing for the first time, navigate to:
Extensions > Modules > Restrict Payment Methods > click Install



6. For help with any setting, make sure the "Tooltips Enabled" setting is on.
You can then hover over any field to get help with what it means and how to
use it. If things are not working as expected on the front-end, make sure you
enable Testing Mode. You can then run a test, and view the messages in the
admin panel. It should tell you why the charges are not appearing.



7. To create a manual backup of all your current settings, click the "Backup
Settings" button. You can then restore from this backup at any time using the
"Restore Settings" button. You can also restore from the automatic backup that
is created every time the extension is opened, in case you want to go back to
the settings as they were when you loaded the page.



8. Backups are in tab-separated format, so you can easily edit them in a
spreadsheet application. If you're interested in manually editing the settings
backup file, visit:
