It allows you to share your content easily and upload your files including images, files, and more with a single click. But, sometimes you need an FTP client to access your blog and, add, delete, or even, edit what you want. This protocol is similar to the HTTP protocol, but, it works in the inverse direction. In our case today, the question is how to upload to WordPress using FileZilla?
If you have Filezilla installed, then skip this step. If not yet, you need to download the FTP client from Filezilla. So, download only the client version from their official website, as the screenshot below:. I recommend keeping Filezilla on your computer, you may need it later to fix a problem with your site, in fact, updating WordPress with plugins and themes can break the site, so, there is no way to fix that problem without having fast FTP access to the right files.
To start a new connection on Filezilla, click on the bottom located at the top left area of the interface, just like the next screenshot. To register the FTP server, follow below steps:. If all is well, then in the top window of FileZilla, you will have seen a series of messages, and in the large window, you will see a listing of the files will appear. If you had a problem, then it is time to go troubleshooting!
Look at the top area of FileZilla main window and check the messages. Want to know more about me find out , , Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment.

When you upload a folder, it will be transferred into files. Please note that files will take some time to be fully uploaded, it may take hours if the file is large as MB, for example. So, be patient and never interrupt file transfer until it finished automatically.
