2. Fire up an FTP client, such as Filezilla and connect to where your website is hosted;

3. Using the “Remote Site” panel, on the remote location your website is hosted, navigate to /{root}/wp-content/plugins/wp-trip-summary folder (where {root} is the folder that contains your entire website);

4. Using the “Local Site” panel, navigate to the plug-in folder you unpacked locally;

5. Copy over all the local plug-in file to the remote plug-in folder and overwrite all files.
