### Via Custom Module Manager (recommended)

- Install and use [Custom Module Manager](https://github.com/Jefferson49/CustomModuleManager) for an easy and convenient installation of webtrees custom modules.
- Open the Custom Module Manager view in webtrees, select "linkenhancer", and click on the "Install Module" button.

### Manual installation

1. Download the [latest release](https://codeberg.org/bschwede/linkenhancer/releases/latest) of the module.
2. Upload the downloaded file to your web server.
3. Unzip the package into your `modules_v4` directory.
4. Rename the folder to `linkenhancer`

If everything was successful, you should see a subdirectory `linkenhancer` with the unpacked content in the `modules_v4` directory.
