	6	+This only works if you want to install extensions via the extension manager, and you know how to use the "extended search". It will not work when installing the main UI with the Distribution wizard, as it will not find the available flavors. For this, you must use an alternative method, like the [[XIP package>>doc:Documentation.AdminGuide.Installation.||anchor="HXIPpackage"]].

	69	+You now can install the extension offline by typing in the ##groupId:artifactId## as extension id (e.g. ##org.xwiki.contrib:xwiki-application-admintools## for the [[Admin Tools Application>>doc:extensions:Extension.Admin Tools Application]] and then the version number. (Searching for the extension by name will not work, because a file system maven repo does not support this.)
