# Uploading ThemeWare®

First of all, we would like to point out that purchased extensions automatically appear in the Extension Management. A manual upload is therefore not necessary.

The manual upload of extensions is possible in two ways:

* Upload via the [Extension Management](#1-extension-management) (recommended)
* Upload via [FTP](#2-ftp)

***

## 1) Extension Management

1. Open the administration of your shop
2. Switch via the main navigation to the "**Extension Management**" (1) (2) ("Extensions" => "My Extensions")
3. Switch to the tab "**Themes**" (3)
4. Click the button "**Upload extension**" (4)\
   ![](/files/21HTq59NJ7Vqam8m8g4O)

ThemeWare® is now being uploaded.

## 2) FTP

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note**: Uploading via FTP is possible, but **we recommend using the Shopware Extension Management**. When uploading extensions via FTP, it can happen that file permissions get messed up and an extension no longer works or cannot be updated or uninstalled.
