You need webmaster access to do that change as the files need to be copied via FTP to the server. Mere admin privileges wont be enough
If admins have XML file then they can directly upload it and install the product using vBulletin. https://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/import_product Uploading it via FTP using webmaster access is just an alternative. :dontknow:

I thought it was not a plugin, just a PHP page that has to be copied to the server :dontknow: Does Import product work with any file?

:doh: No' date=' only XML files. Many files would have to be uploaded for this. Sorry, I forgot about this. :(([/quote'] ya, I think this is not a part of the Vbulletin infrastructure at all. It just makes AJAX calls at regular intervals to the server and scrapes the HTML data and shows the results. The reason it has to be copied the forum directory is it might be referencing some themes or resources using the relative path. I guess with some changes to the code, it could be deployed to any website. Let me try doing that and test on my server. Won't work as pages can make AJAX calls only to the server they are hosted at.

In VB, various plugin files have to be uploaded via FTP and then the XML file needs to be 'imoprted' in the Admin panel and then this XML file has to be 'run' so that it makes necessary database table updates for that plugin. I think current VB version of ICF is 4.0. The plugin Vibhash is suggesting is for old versions. One has to be careful about right versions of the plugin for VB.
