How To Import Library With Joomla CCK

In this article we will show you how easily it is to import our Joomla CCK Library!

After you logged in your Joomla Admin panel, you need to go to "Components" → "CCK" → "Import".

Here you can see the tab "Import library". There is an entire library with all main forms needed for your website. Click on the button "Install" to install the OrdaSoft Joomla CCK Library.

Here you'll see a few options. "Create a new entity", "Merge with already existing entity" or "Skip". If you do import 1 time - you need to select "Create a new entity". In OrdaSoft Joomla CCK - all forms (layouts) connected to some Entity.

Entity is a class that brings together all layouts and data for some specificity.

Shop Entity - all you need to create a shop website.

Book Entity - all you need to create a book website.

So, you will import "OS Library" entity - with all what we have in "OrdaSoft Joomla CCK Library". If you already have "OS Library" Entity, we will create "OS Library 1" entity. Or you may select "Merge with already existing entity" - to merge with Entity which you already have - so we will not create new entity and will create all layouts in Entity that you have.
