Way To Install Module Missing?

Hi there,

There seems to be no way for me to add a module to cms made simple?

I have never used cms made simple before and need to add an rss module to my website as it currently has none.

Please view the image above, this is what i see when i click extensions, module manager.

I have downloaded the rss1.1.zip file, but there seems to be no way to install it?

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks

This doesn't seem to be the latest version of CMSMS (1.9.4.2) is that correct?

Hi I'm not sure. It is on a clients website and I have never used Cms made simple before. I just need to make sure he has an rss feed.

What should I do to get an rss feed on his website?

Well, first of all make sure it's the latest version as there has been some problems with the menu manager in past versions. ;)

I understand using a search function is hard ;)

Upgrading is not difficult, it can be scary, if you've never tried it before. Just make sure you have a recent backup.
Download the latest version, unpack, upload to ftp, run install/upgrade.php script and you should be ok.
Don't forget to update your modules right after upgrading the CMSms core.
