I have designed my website using Coffee Cup VSD and photogallery which I have been very pleased with and am using Inmotion as my hosting company.

I am now ready to publish my site using Coffee Cups FTP and am unsure how to go about it.

Where do I obtain the nickname, username, password,server information etc that Coffee Cup asks for when I click publish? Can all the files be uploaded as one or do I need to upload a page at a time with images separately?

I am very new and inexperienced to this and would appreciate any offers of help

Many thanks in advance

If your using VSD why not use the built in ftp program. One click and your done. VSD will take care of all the grunt work and make sure all the files get the right place.:)
The nickname is just for your reference so you know where your publishing to. Use what ever name you like. The password and username are provided by your host when you setup your account. If using direct ftp select all the files you want to publish then hit upload or drag them to the folder on the right side where you want them published.
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.
