There are several ways to go about this. All fall under the heading of FTP (File Transfer Protocol). <b>What is FTP?</b> Quite simply File Transfer Protocol is the protocol used on the Internet for exchanging files. It's simply a method to transfer files between computers. There's really no need to know more than this. <b>How do I use FTP?</b> To transfer files, you can use one of these: 1) FTP program, 2) cPanel's File Manager, 3) Web publishing programs such as FrontPage or Dreamweaver <b>1) FTP program</b> We prefer <a href="http://filezilla-project.org/" target="_blank">FileZilla</a> for transferring files, because it is easier to use. If you don't have complex needs you might want to check out one of the other free FTP programs out there. <b>2) cPanel's File Manager</b> You can also transfer files using the "FILE MANAGER" in cPanel. The cPanel has lots of other features that are explained in more detail on the following pages. <b>3) Web publishing programs</b> To transfer files using Frontpage or Dreamweaver, make sure to use the correct address: ftp://username.echoechoplus.com <b>What is my login info?</b> <b><span style="color: blue;">If you don't have a domain hosted with us:</span></b> ----------------- <b>FTP host address:</b> <span style="color: red;">username</span>.echoechoplus.com <b>Username:</b> username@<span style="color: red;">username</span>.echoechoplus.com <b>Password:</b> The password for your account. <b>Port:</b> 21 ----------------- Note: Replace <span style="color: red;">username</span> with your real username. If the above doesn't work it may be that your FTP program doesn't allow @ in usernames. Try username<span style="color: red;">#</span>username.echoechoplus.com instead. ----------------- <b><span style="color: blue;">If you have a domain hosted with us:</span></b> ----------------- <b>FTP host address:</b> ftp.yourdomain.com <b>Username:</b> username@yourdomain.com <b>Password:</b> The password for your account. <b>Port:</b> 21 ----------------- Again, if the above doesn't work it may be that you FTP program doesn't allow @ in usernames. Try username<span style="color: red;">#</span>username.echoechoplus.com instead. <b>Where do I upload files to?</b> You should upload your files and images to the "public_html" folder. <b>Reserved folder names</b> These folder names are reserved by your site's control panel and can't be used for folders that you upload to the site: /icons/ , /sqmail/ , /webmail/ , /squirrelmail/ <div align="right"><b>Next page: <a href="/helpfiles/index.php?aktion=artikel&rubrik=012&id=12&lang=en">Webmail</a></b></div></content> <author>EchoEcho Support</author> <date>19.09.2012, 08:24</date> </article> </phpmyfaq> |
