s2city 0 Report post Posted November 13, 2006 I've never really been a fan of SmartFTP. I don't like the way it's laid out. I like to have the remote connection on the right side, not the left - is there a way to change this in SmartFTP, because I couldn't find one? I'll stick with CuteFTP! But an excellent tutorial no less, you actually solved a problem I was having in not being able to see the active directory. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

darran 0 Report post Posted November 23, 2006 It is a very good tutorial, but I don't think there should be too much problems with using FTP, but this is very useful for those who are still very new to FTP. As to regards with FTP programmes, I don't like to use Smart FTP, it looks too much like Microsoft Office 2003, but I do not deny that it is easy to use. But I prefer Flash FXP (30 day trial) and Cute FTP which are both needed to be purchased. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

coreymanshack 0 Report post Posted December 11, 2006 Smart FTP has always given me problems. It wasn't server side problems either, because I now use FileZilla and have NO problems at all. I would suggest you all to switch to FileZilla. It may not be as appealing to the eye, but it gets the job done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

paulmason411 0 Report post Posted December 11, 2006 I had problems uploading when i tried uploading a folder with heaps of files in it. It would usually get to halfway and then disconnect. So now i always upload in a queue. This way incomplete uploads can be resumed :)The way to use queues is by simply right clicking on the destination folder and selecting Upload->Queue->Select...Hope this helps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Saint_Michael 3 Report post Posted December 11, 2006 Ahh the solution is simple do the uploads in small groups if you do more then like 3-400 files in shout the server will cut off because of the load your giving the server to handle.so do it in groups of 5-10 and you won't get the cut off. I gotten the cut off plenty of times to figure out why. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dartkun 0 Report post Posted December 11, 2006 Ah, nice tutorial, a tad brief but SmartFTP does have a pretty basic interface. On the other hand, I've only been using FTPs for the last year because they were confusing to me in the past. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Misanthrope 0 Report post Posted February 19, 2007 I just dowloaded SmartFTP due in part to recommendations on Xisto's forum. I'm glad somebody's explained how to use it in terminology even someone like me can understand. Now I don't have to waste time trying to figure out Smart's instructions. I'd personally like to see more tutorials for users who are new to web design, or at least technically challenged on this forum. Thanks Angel! Perhaps you could post a tutorial on integrating blogs into existing web sites. I need help on that too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
