IMPORTANT AND MANDATORY PRE-REQUESITES.

For PrestaShop < 1.5

If URL rewriting is activated, you must go in the back-office of your store, click on the
Tools tab and then on Generators

In the textarea, copy and past the following line :

RewriteRule ^[a-z]+/lookbook/([a-z-]+)/?([a-z-]+)?$ /modules/lookbook/show-
lookbook.php?category=$1&lookbook=$2 [QSA,L]

and then click on Generate .htaccess file

For PrestaShop > 1.5 until PrestaShop 1.5.4. (no more necessary after v1.5.4)

Edit .htaccess file on your web root and add this line manually just after RewriteEngine On.
To install the module you must copy the module folder directly in the folder "modules" of
your PrestaShop Shop software by transfering it by FTP.

Refer to PrestaShop FAQ, topic FTP transfer:

http://addons.prestashop.com/en/content/21-howto

Once your module is transferred, check permissions. Your shop should be able to write
recursively in the folder "uploads" of the lookbook module. These permissions must be set
to rwxrwxrwx or
777, ie. read / write /
exe- cute for every-
one.

After the copy of the
file completed, you
can log in the back
office of your shop to
per- form the installa-
tion itself.

Click
the
"modules" back office tab.
Unfold the "Front Office features."
In this list, you will find the module "Block Lookbook"
Click "Install" on the right.

Congratulations! Your Lookbook module is now installed.

Lookbook module configuration

Module configuration is quite simple.
You only have to configure two parameters.

The size of the banners.
The size of the thumbnail.

By default, these values are set respectively to 555 pixels and 120 pixels.

Set the desired values to match the theme customization of your shop and click "Save".

Now you need to add new categories and new lookbooks in these categories.

When you installed the module, a new section is added automatically to the tab "catalog"
of your shop.

Click on the "Catalog" tab of your shop.
Then click on the "lookbook" item on the right below the tab bar.

numeric characters are allowed, including accented characters and dashes.)
In the field "Category description" (Fig.1-2), enter the category description. (IM-
PORTANT: This field is mandatory but is not yet used by the module.)
The checkbox "Active" (Fig.1-3) is used to select whether the category is active
or not. If it is not active, it will not appear in the front office and will not be usable
in the back office as long as it remains inactive.)
Click on the flag (Fig.1-4) to choose the next language and enter the translated
values.

mation.)

Add images to lookbooks

This part is very simple.

Fig. 6

Choose a lookbook from the dropdown menu (Figure 6-1).
Choose the language from the dropdown menu (Figure 6-2).
Choose a file to your computer and drag in on the gray box (Fig. 6-3).

N.B. : Instead of dragging a file directly to the shape, you can click it and choose a file di-
rectly from the classic exploration menu of your operating system.

N.B. : It is not possible to delete an image once it has been added. It is assumed that a
lookbook will always show an image which represents it. By cons, we can replace an im-
age by an other.

IMPORTANT : Only JPG (.jpg extension) files are accepted.
