Uploading your form using the built in FTP Client in the program is very easy.  If you have used either Free FTP or Direct FTP, entering the server information will appear exactly the same.  In fact, if you have either of those programs installed on your computer, you will see your FTP information is already in place, no need to fill it in again.

 

Setting Up a Server Profile:

 

Click the Add button (in yellow) and follow the directions.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After Completing the Server Profile setup, you will see a window like the one below.

 

 

 

Anonymous - mean you will be signing into the server with a username and password of anonymous. 

 

Passive Mode - Some servers and firewalls require this. 

 

Save Password - Saves the password so you don't have to enter it in each time.

 

Stay Connected - Allows the FTP client to stay connected to a server for a longer period of time even if inactive. (NOOP)

 

Initial Host folder - This field is for the host folder path. (domain.com/public_html)

 

Initial Local Folder - This is the folder you want open on your computer when you connect.

 

 To Connect, Select the  Server Profile under the my sites column and click the  button.

 

Once you click the  button the built in Ftp will connect to your FTP Server.  The Initial Host Folder you entered in the Server Profile will be displayed when you connect.  

 

 

 To navigate to a different folder, you will need to click the folder icons.  Double clicking on a folder icon 

 will take you into that folder.  Double clicking this  will take you back one folder.  To upload your files, click the Upload button. (Uploading this way should upload all your files automatically.)

 

 

 

 If for some reason you cannot connect, an error message will appear which should give you some idea of things to check.  If you are still unsure of why you cannot connect, click the Log tab and copy the contents.  Then contact us and provide the Information from the Log tab.  This will generally give us enough information to assist you.

 

 Once all the files have been uploaded, click the close button.
