CubeCart’s built-in marketplace makes it easy to keep your extensions up to date or remove ones you no longer need.

Upgrading an Extension

When a newer version of an installed extension is available, you’ll see an update notification in the admin panel.

  1. Go to Extensions in your admin panel.
  2. Extensions with available updates will show an Upgrade button.
  3. Click Upgrade — CubeCart downloads and installs the new version automatically, replacing the old files.
  4. Your existing configuration and settings are preserved.

It’s good practice to keep extensions up to date for security patches, bug fixes, and new features.

Downgrading an Extension

If an update causes an issue, you can revert to a previous version:

  1. Go to Extensions and find the extension.
  2. Click Delete to remove the current version.
  3. The marketplace will then show the extension as available to install again.
  4. If you need a specific older version that is no longer in the marketplace, contact [email protected] for assistance.

Removing an Extension

  1. Go to Extensions in your admin panel.
  2. Find the extension you want to remove.
  3. Click Delete.
  4. CubeCart removes the extension files from your server.

Note: You cannot delete a skin that is currently active. Switch to a different skin first before removing it.

Tips

  • All official CubeCart extensions are free and can be reinstalled at any time from the marketplace.
  • Always back up your store before upgrading extensions, especially on a live store.
  • If an extension upgrade fails, check that your modules/ directory is writable by the web server.
