How To: Manage FTP Accounts

From the FTP Accounts page in SiteWorx, users are able to add and manage FTP accounts. A user named ftp@{domain.com}, where {domain.com} is replaced with the primary domain domain of the SiteWorx account, is automatically created when the SiteWorx account is.

Note

FTP accounts can be limited or disabled by the Server Administrator.

SiteWorx users who do not see FTP listed as an option in SiteWorx should contact their hosting provider.
