Great training, Dawn! I've done this in years past but, this was a great refresher for me!

And, you included such a simple little fix for saved "bad passwords"...!

I commend you and hope that you do some more training to keep us out of website trouble!

Be used where instead of FileZilla? The instructions here can probably applied to any FTP application.

Thank you Littlemama, I was wondering what's the point of using FileZilla since we can access site directories through FTP connection, but probably may need to educate myself more in this particular area

Lesson 6 seems to be the core of logging into the ftp panel and making it work. Great tactics Dawn!
