Magic Menu

1 · Installation

Two ways to install — via Composer or by uploading the app folder. Both end with the same Magento CLI steps.

System requirements

• Magento 2.3.x / 2.4.x installed and working
• PHP, MySQL/MariaDB and web server meeting Magento 2 system requirements
• SSH access to run Magento CLI commands

Method 1 — Install via Composer (recommended)

1. Open a terminal in your Magento 2 root directory and require the package:

   composer require magepow/magicmenu

2. Run the Magento setup upgrade:

   php bin/magento setup:upgrade

3. Deploy static content (production mode):

   php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy -f

4. Flush the cache:

   php bin/magento cache:flush

Method 2 — Manual install (upload app folder)

1. Download the extension package and unzip it. Upload the app folder to your Magento 2 root so it merges with the existing app directory.
2. Run the following commands from the Magento 2 root:

   php bin/magento setup:upgrade
   php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy -f
   php bin/magento cache:flush

3. Log out of the Admin panel and log back in to refresh access permissions, then clear the cache under System > Cache Management.
