Editing files in FTP

[Enigma Co.]

How do you rename and edit files directly...it keeps saying i do not have permission to do so???

i think it said in another thread you couldnt do that, youd have to do it on you computer the upload it (i think)

I was in my bizhat directory (ftp via IE) and wanted to make a new folder. It created the folder and called it "New Folder" but then wouldn't let me rename it. Your best bet is to do all editing on your local computer and then upload. It also means less worry about accidentally undoing a change you made online when you upload an updated page again later.

Just delete the folder. Create new folder and upload.

you can rename your file via ftp if you set the configuration first on the ftp software preference... some software dont enable it, so you should enable it yourself

Just delete the folder. Create new folder and upload.

Its the only way. you can NOT make a new folder in ftp accounts, unless you use a different host.
