Installation

(6 votes, average 4.33 out of 5)

Basic installation steps for the MetaMod module for Joomla 1.5.x, and (optionally) GeoIP databases.

1. Install the mod_metamod basic package

Install the mod_metamod-1-5x.zip package into Joomla! in the usual way:

In the Administrator back-end of your site, click on the “Extensions–>Install/Uninstall” menu
Click on “Choose File”, select the mod_metamod-1-5x.zip file,
Click on “Upload File and Install”.

2. (optional, for GeoIP functionality) GeoIP Country/City database

Download the MaxMind GeoLite Country database, uncompress it (it's in gz format), then place it at the location geoip/GeoIP.dat in the Joomla installation on your web server (you will usually require an FTP or SFTP client to upload this to your site).
For even more power, download the Maxmind GeoLite City database, and install it at geoip/GeoLiteCity.dat. This gives you the ability to make module rules based on the city/state/county/area code/postal code/latitude/longitude of the person viewing the site.
