Installing the Ifplay_arrowSo WordPress Plugin

To install If-So you must have a working version of WordPress already installed. If you need help installing WordPress, follow the instructions in WordPress Codex.

There are two different ways to install and activate If-So:

1. Via the WordPress installer
2. Via FTP

Installing If-So via WordPress

1. Log in to your account and download the If-So ZIP file.
2. On your WordPress dashboard go to Plugins → Add New.
3. Click on “Upload Plugin”.
4. Navigate your computer files and select the If-So ZIP file.
5. Once it’s uploaded, click on “Activate“.

Installing If-So via FTP

In order to use FTP, you will need a client program for your computer. The most popular programs are FileZilla and WinSCP. Both are available for Mac and Windows.

1. Connect to your server with your FTP program.
2. Locate the Document Root (the folder containing all of your WordPress files) for your site. It’s often called public_html or has the same name as your site’s domain name, but it could be anything. If you’re unsure, ask your host.
3. Once you have located your “Document Root”, use your FTP program to go into wp-content/plugins/
4. Use your FTP program to upload the plugin folder created when you unzipped the plugin file.
5. Last, once the folder is completely uploaded, your plugin will be listed on the WordPress plugins page, and you can click on the activate link next to it.

NOTE: Make sure to upload the plugin folder, not the zip file. The zip file won’t function on your site.
