I tried to publish, said it published, but how do I set up the FTP correctly? I am using Go Daddy as my host. Looks like the files our on Go Daddy's server, but use/, then /public_html/.

In your FTP Account Settings...

Nickname: whatever you want ie: gunsmoke
Server: yourdomain.com
Username: yourgodaddyusername (NOT your godaddy account name/number)
Password: yourgoaddypassword (NOT your godaddy account password)
remote folder: leave this blank
port: 21
use passive checked

These are the setting for a GoDaddy server. Now, understand that your godaddy account username/password is not the same as your FTP username/password. If you do not have this information, or have lost it, contact Godaddy to get it.

If the remote folder is 'blank' then the files will be uploaded to your domain root. ie. http://yourdomainname.com
If you put /mysite/ in the remote folder then your site will be located at http://yourdomain.com/mysite

Hope this helps, let us know if you still need more . . .:cool:

Thanks, I have tried to fix it, but think I need to reset Go Daddy File Manager to default setting, because I might have something wrong. I still can't view my website. Here is a screenshot so maybe you can tell if something in my Go Daddy File Manager shouldn't be there, etc.

What is your domain name? Where are you trying to publish your site? ( ie: yourdomain.com)
