Installation

Download IP To Country bot file and go to Joomla administration panel. Point Installers/Mambots and select the zip file by clicking browse button. Make sure your /mambots directory is writable. Click Upload File &Install button. If everything is alright, you will see a message explains that your module installation is successful.

JI2C bot needs to #__iptocountry database table to work properly. #_ stands for your Joomla table prefix. For instance, if you did not change table prefix when you are installing Joomla, your table prefix is "jos". You have two ways to insert #__iptocountry table to your Joomla DB. The first one, you can download com_iptocountry component below and install from Joomla administration section. This component has no backend or frontend interface (Yes, it will be ready soon) but only for inserting #__iptocountry table into your db using Joomla's query handling system. Using this way is strongly recommended if you have not problems with Joomla's different version. If you have some problems (timeout or anything else) with your Jooomla when installing Ip To Country component, you can download iptocountry.sql.zip file below and then upload it to your Joomla db using a database management script such as phpMyAdmin. If you are using the second way, please be sure your Joomla table prefix is "jos" since this sql file created taking this into account. Or you can search and replace all "jos_" statements with the appropriate ones using a proper editor (notepad, gedit or other).

If you install both bot_iptocountry and com_iptocountry, it is sufficent to cooperate with Joomfish and/or other Joomla components. But if you want to show some details to the visitor, you need to install JIP2C module.
