-====== Installation ======
+======Installation of Addons======
+  - Go to the ADDONS > MANAGE ADDONS admin tool
+  - Scroll down to the uninstalled section of addons
+  - Click the **install** button next to the addon you wish to install.  This runs the installation script for that addon.  This usually includes installation of tables within the database.  Once install script has run the page will refresh.
+  - Check for any settings or configuration that need to be made before the addon goes live.
+  - Now the addon is installed but not enabled on the site.  You now need to find your addon within the middle section of the same admin tool page and click the **enable** button to put the addon in live use.
+===== Installation for Versions Prior to V7=====
 These are the general installation instructions that work for most Geo Auction and Classified Software Addons created/maintained by Geodesic Solutions.  Also be sure to read any instructions specific to the addon you are installing, if such instructions exist.

+  - Once on the Manage Addons page, you will see a link next to the updated addon that says something like "Upgrade to z.y.x" where z.y.x is the version number to which you're updating. Click that link.
+  - An information message will be shown if there are any additional instructions to follow for this particular update.
