Setting FileZilla Up
Load FileZilla, then click on Site Manager. This is where you will connect your website to FileZilla.
Click the New Site button and give the new site a name. I always simply use the domain name.
Fill in Host, User and Password. Click the Connect button.
The left-hand panel should show folders from your local hard disk and the right-hand panel folders from your website.
You can navigate up or down

Phil I can't connect either. I've set the FTP to passive and tried to connect many times. Error:Status: Connecting to ftp_YFSgFtn0...
Response: fzSftp started, protocol_version=11
Command: open "clthorp59@outlook.com@ftp_YFSgFtn0" 22
Error: ssh_init: nodename nor servname provided, or not known
Error: Could not connect to server
Which is the best port to use–21 or 22?

ideally you shouldn't give others access to your ftp password and username....
i managed to login with these details....
so hostname - website url
username ftp_......
password ftp password
port 21
quick connect
there will be another screen saying about unsecure content - just accept that one...
and you should get what i did in the image
ps - ask support to change the ftp password after you get in and do what you need to ....will make it secure again

You shouldn't need to specify port at all.
Just enter your domain name, FTP user name and password from the WA site details. See attached example.

Check out my latest reply. Sorry about the delay, was flying home yesterday evening. Delayed 2 and a half hours because of bad weather.
It's your FTP username and password.

Although I'm familiar with using Filezilla, the first of the two scenarios you mentioned is something I had not considered.
I have dropped the GCS verification code into the theme editor folder. I had no idea I could add it to my public_html folder.
The second one I have used to upload my PDF giveaways!
hanks for providing this training, Phil!
