ignition 0 Report post Posted March 18, 2005 Look in the sticky posted up at the top of this forum by NilsC.Configure smartftp using that, and to upload folders and files click the little folder with a magnifying glass icon on the top icon bar. Drag and drop from that window into your connection window (in the public_html folder).If you need any more help, post. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TwizlZone 0 Report post Posted March 28, 2005 I'll check it out aswell. I 've never used an FTP before, and wandering if it is easier than just uploading? I mean, I dunno about anyone else, but sometimes I have an heck of a time trying to upload, some days it's easy. I am wandering if having such diifaculties as I do, is it possible that it's my connection that makes it so hard? I live out of town, and use the phone lines, or does the size have to do with it?, even if they aren't that big? (I think?) and will this accure with an FTP aswell?
