What is FTP?

For this reason, Rock Stage developed SFTP — Secure File Transfer Protocol in order to help you to use this feature on WordPress sites that are hosted by Rock.

 

Rock Stage SFTP: how to access step-by-step?

The first step to enter the tool is to obtain the credentials through Rock Stage and configure software on your computer that permits these accesses.

After following the steps above, you’ll be able to access your website’s file manager.

 

How to access the SFTP?

Once you have got the Rock Stage credentials, it’s time to access your website’s SFTP. For this, you will need to install a file management software. 

As an example, we’ll show you how to use Filezilla, as it is one of the most widely used programs for this purpose.

After downloading it, installing it and opening it, go to the top left corner of the home screen, click on the first icon below the menu and then select “open site manager”:

Next, the screen below will appear, and you’ll need to click on “new site” to add the SFTP connection to your site.

You need to choose your site’s name to access it in the future without creating a new connection from scratch. 

So, on the right side of the screen, fill in the following data:

  • Protocol: SFTP SSH File Transfer Protocol;
  • Host: ftp.rockstage.io;
  • Door: Door;
  • Logo Type: Normal;
  • User: User;
  • Password: Password

Finally, just click on “connect” to see the files on your site organized into folders.
