So anyway-- here you go!Download SmartFTP here.
Orange box: this is where you type ftp.yourdomain.com. But if you own a subdomain, you might have to type in ftp.subdomain.domainname.com; depends on your host. For example, my address would be ftp.vanillaskye.org.
Orange red box: a bar that leads to properties, and more ftp stuff o_O. Some of them are just there, so don't worry about that bar.
Black box: Click this to get to your documents-- where you upload your stuff to your site.
Teal box: Teal box: You can click this to connect to your FTP. (another way to connect)
Dark turquoise box: this is your login information, say my user and password was apple and password was jacks -- put that in the boxes.
Dark Blue box: this is where you upload your stuff to your site-- highlight your stuff and then press the button that points to your ftp site (I press the one that points left).
Green box: it's a log to show how long or when its finished uploading your stuff onto your site.
Faq:
What's my ftp address?
ftp.yourdomain.com.
How do I know my FTP login information?
Your host should give it to you, if your host didn't ask again.
How come I don't see my directory?
Look back at the picture above and find the black box, click it and look for the folder with your content.
How to upload files:
You can highlight all the files you want to upload and drag it to your ftp browser (for example look at the picture above-- highlight the files on the right and drag it to the left) or you can highlight the files you want to upload and click the button (in the blue box) pointing to your ftp browser. (left?)
FTP is fast & easy to use, at first I was confused and thought it'd be hard to find out how to use it; but when I got used to it.. it was easy peasy. So don't worry you'll get the hang of it. Haven't seen this kind of tutorial made this way anywhere so I thought I'd make it like this and hope it helped If this tutorial didn't, post on any problems
