A WoW Roster Addon is code that supplements the core components of roster, giving additional functionality and/or other ways to view Available Roster Data or even to create new data
All Roster AddOns are placed or extracted to 'roster/addons/'
If you have an AddOn named SomeAddon, then it's folder will be at 'roster/addons/SomeAddon/'
with it's files inside that folder
Some AddOn authors "zip up" their AddOns with just their folder name
SomeAddon/ |_inc/ | |_conf.php | |_install.def.php |_guild/ | |_index.php |_locale/ | |_enUS.php |_style.css |_index.php
With this type, set the extract location to 'roster/addons/'
While some may put the entire Roster folder structure in the zip file
addons/
|_SomeAddon/
|_inc/
| |_conf.php
| |_install.def.php
|_guild/
| |_index.php
|_locale/
| |_enUS.php
|_style.css
|_index.php
With this type, set the extract location to 'roster/'
Just remember that the folder structure needs to look something like this
roster/
|_addons/
|_SomeAddon/
| |_inc/
| | |_conf.php
| | |_install.def.php
| |_guild/
| | |_index.php
| |_locale/
| | |_enUS.php
| |_style.css
| |_index.php
|_AnotherAddon/
|_inc/
| |_conf.php
| |_install.def.php
|_guild/
| |_index.php
|_locale/
| |_enUS.php
|_style.css
|_index.php

First, go to the Roster Control Panel under AddOn Management to un-install your AddOn
