I assume that I am missing something important here, however I will embarrass myself.
I have installed the latest version of ELXIS and the sample content with the okto template. I wish to install extras components and bots.
If I upload manually the files of a component (e.g. IOS newsletter), shall I place them under the components directory??
Trying to use the components installer from the Administration site points me by default to :
/htdocs/administrator/components/com_installer/component
Changing the above to the folder of the newly uploaded files reports that there is nothing to install? I know I am doing something crappy. Pointing me to the right direction would be appreciated….
Reegards,
Alex

Download extensions from elxis-downloads.com. All extensions are ready to be installed zip packages. You dont have to unzip them or to upload them on your site.
To install a component go the Elxis' components installer.
Select from the top menu: Installers -> Components
Upload Package File
Select the zip package you wish to install and click "Upload File & Install" ("Αποστολή Αρχείου & Εγκατάσταση" in Greek).
That's it!
Do not install from directory.

Nothing smarter than Elxis Component's installer ;)
