Can someone please tell me how to upload files from my dropbox account to my my WA account via FTP?

I managed to restore website from backup files without FTP
and made a tutorial since I could find anything.
Don't know if it still needed or helpful but here's the link

If you open your FTP client, login to the WA account with the FTP account and FTP password in your website Access Details. Once you are logged in, you should see your Dropbox folder in your local Site window and your WA files on your Remote Site Window.

Thank you!!

Hey Sunshine, I´m not sure what you mean ´cause I´m not so good in English but if I knew what you mean I sure could help you ;)

Thank you!!

Happy New Years! Not quite there yet, but I'm working on it!! Thanks!! ;-)

Happy new years and i hope you found what you were looking for.

Thanks for the words of encouragement! I think I am about to get it figured out. Who knew trying to move an existing site was going to be so dang complicated! LOL Happy New Year to you too!

Sorry Sunshine, I can't help with this one. Someone will though. Happy New Year ($$$)…..

It happens every time...Just when you think you're on your own a WA genius comes along and helps.

Thank you for the information!!! I really appreciate it!!! ;-)

Haha! You're funny!! ;-) I am hoping for some kindness of WA geniuses myself. I will google and see if there is an answer out there though. Thanks,

You're welcome! Here's hoping the for the best! Hang in there, Carolyn! (crosses fingers and holds breath)

I sent in a support ticket and that is how I found out that I need to upload the backup file to them via FTP. Now my only problem is how to do that!! LOL You gotta laugh ;-) Thanks for the help!!

I wish it had been help! Sorry, Carolyn. Sometimes if I can't find an answer I just google the whole darn question. It doesn't often help but sometimes I get the answer I was looking for. Mostly I just depend on the kindness of WA geniuses.

I'm not sure, Carolyn. If you don't get an answer here, perhaps you should put in for a support ticket. Did you put your subject into the search box at the top of the page?

Thank you so much!!!!

I would like to pull my current domain into WA but not sure how to move it. It's a Wordpress blog but I can't afford to lose what I've done so far.

Yes, you can do that in one of two ways.

1. You can do it yourself by following Welshy's tutorial here:

https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/training/how-to-transfer-a-wp-site-to-wa-hosting

2. OR - do what Carson suggests in reply to another member

I think Carson's suggestion would be easier for you!

After your files are set up on WA temporary hosting, you will need to log in to your Domain Registrar account and change the DNS address of your domain to point to the WA hosting address:

Here are two tutorials on setting up your domain DNS to point to WA hosting address:

P.S. It is always a good idea to make sure you have a backup of your website files.

Do you just want to move your domain here?
