After you have converted your images, you have the option to upload them to your webserver by clicking on Upload Files.
This opens the
FTP upload window. If you have
CoffeeCup Direct
FTP installed it will import the connection profiles into PixConverter. If you don't you will need to setup the
FTP connection now.
Click the + button to add a connection.
Name of Server Profile: This is the "nickname" of this connection. You can literally name it anything you want.
Username: This is your
FTP username. This is assigned to you by your webhosting company. You can click Anonymous if your
FTP server allows anonymous connections, but most likely it does not.
Password: This is your
FTP password. This is assigned to you by your webhosting company. You can click Save Password so that you don't have to retype it everytime you connect.
Web Server Address: This is the
TCP/IP hostname of your
FTP Server. It should be in the form of "ftp.yourdomain.com". Do not include "ftp://" or any directory name such as "ftp.yourdomain.com/mysite" because these are invalid
TCP/IP hostnames. It is up to your webhosting company to assign your
FTP server hostname, so you will need to find out from them what it is.
Note: It can also come in the form of an IP address.
Good examples of a hostname:
ftp.mysite.com
24.24.100.100
Bad examples of a hostname:
ftp://ftp.mysite.com
ftp.mysite.com/mysite
Initial Remote Directory:
This is the folder that you will be brought to immediately after connecting. You must put the full path in here.
For example, if you keep all your
HTML files on your
FTP webserver in the directory "mysite/webfiles/public_html" then you can put this as your default folder and it will take you here immediately. Remember that you must put the entire path name. If you just put in "public_html" it would not work, unless on your
FTP webserver you actually had a "public_html" folder in your root directory.
Edit Firewall Settings: If you use a proxy server to connect to the Internet you may need to use a proxy to
FTP as well. If you do use a Proxy, click yes and enter in all your Proxy information, if you don't just click No.
Comment: You can put any comments about this connection here.
Once your profile is setup click OK. To upload the files click Upload Now.
