How to Download an FTP SiteIn Feburary 2016 21,
In Feburary 2016 21,
Secure server space to host your website and collect content you would like to be posted on your site. Now you are ready to transfer your files from your computer to the Web server space via FTP. Download Filezilla from the Web. Filezilla is a free FTP program which is downloaded onto your computer for use in connecting your computer files to your chosen server or Web host. The FTP upload of files to your website is often referred to as the 'back end' of Web design, as you are working 'behind the scenes', so to speak.
Once you have downloaded the Filezilla program, open it on your computer. Enter the required information for the transfer, including your website host's Web address, the port being used for the transfer, the server type, your Web address for the new site, and your account information -- including your password -- for the server. You may need to refer to your own records and/or make contact with your server for some of this information. Once you have entered this information into Filezilla, hit Enter, and it will connect you to the server which will host your site.
Fotolia.com'>
You will need the password for your server account when uploading files via FTP.
Once connected to your server's site via Filezilla, you will see your computer's files on the left side of the screen and the website files on the right side. Right-click a cursor over the file on the left you want to transfer, and then drag it over to the right side area of the screen where the server files are, then take your finger off the cursor. Name the file/page by entering the file or page name into the box that appears. Hit enter, and you now have a page visible to the public posted onto your website.
Fotolia.com'>
FTP transfers are done by dragging files with a mouse or cursor.
Name each page or file that you transfer via FTP with name patterns, lest you lose track of what is where within your Web directory shell. Too many files without organization makes an unmanageable site. I name all photo files in my website's directory with the prefix of 'photo' so I know it is a photo file. For instance, I would use photobeach.jpg instead of beach.jpg. Eventually, this will give you neat sections of your web directory with groupings such as photos, banners, videos and documents.

Photos are more managable in a website directory if labeled with a 'photo' prefix.

How to Use FTP With WordPressIn Feburary 2016 12,
In Feburary 2016 12,
Open any FTP client. There are hundreds to choose from and you may already have one installed. Download a free client from FileZilla, WinSCP, gFTP or Cyberduck, among others.
Start a new connection if you've never connected to your web host through FTP. Each client is different, but the general process is the same. When you launch the FTP client a connection window will appear. If it doesn't, open the 'File' menu and look for 'New Connection...' or click the connect icon in the toolbar, if applicable.
Enter your host name and your web host username and password. The host name is usually your domain name, but check with your hosting provider if you're not sure. The connection type should say 'FTP' and you can check a box to save the information. Click 'Connect' or 'OK.'
Wait until the connection is established, then you'll see your WordPress files listed in the window. From here you can add or delete files as you need to. Use the toolbar icons to add or remove files or drag and drop them to and from your computer if your client software supports that.
Log out of your hosting account when you're done. There will either be a disconnect icon to click or just close the program.

How to Execute FTP Commands With VBAIn Feburary 2016 11,
In Feburary 2016 11,
Create the FTP command file with a list of commands that the FTP client will execute. The following VBA code fragment creates such a file:Dim ftpFileHandle As IntegerftpFileHandle = FreeFileOpen 'ftpCommand.txt' For Output As #ftpFileHandlePrint #ftpFileHandle, 'open ftpserver.com'Print #ftpFileHandle, 'userid'Print #ftpFileHandle, 'password'Print #ftpFileHandle, 'send localfile.xls'Print #ftpFileHandle, 'recv remotefile.doc'Print #ftpFileHandle, 'bye'Close #ftpFileHandleReplace 'ftpserver.com' with the name of the FTP server, 'userid' with the name of your account in that server and 'password' with your password. The sample code uploads a spreadsheet contained in a file named 'localfile.xls' and downloads a document contained in a file named 'remotefile.doc.' You can use any of the commands from the 'List of FTP Commands' on the NSF Tools website before closing the session with 'bye.'
Create a batch, or executable script, file that invokes the FTP client to have it execute the FTP command file. The following VBA code fragment creates such a file:Dim batFileHandle As IntegerbatFileHandle = FreeFileOpen 'doFtp.bat' For Output As #batFileHandlePrint #batFileHandle, 'ftp -s:ftpCommand.txt'Close #batFileHandle
Execute the batch file by including the following line in your VBA code:Shell ('doFtp.bat'), vbHide '', vbMinimizedNoFocusNote that the line contains two single quotes, without any character between them, immediately before the second comma. Your VBA program will invoke the batch file that, in turn, will invoke the FTP client and have it execute the sequence of commands from Step 1.
