Adding plugins via FTP
Adding media via FTP
Install Add From Server plugin
- Download this plugin: http://wordpress.org/plugins/add-from-server/
- Unzip it using 7-Zip
- Upload the unzipped folder via FTP to your wordpress/wp-content/plugins folder
- Make the folder and all sub-folder writable and executable by all
- Make sure that you only have one sub-folder, so for example the plugin should be stored in wordpress/wp-content/plugins/add-from-server, NOT wordpress/wp-content/plugins/add-from-server/add-from-server
- Go to your website's dashboard, plugins section. The "Add From Server" plugin should now be listed. Activate it.
Use Add From Server plugin to add media
- Create a new folder for your media (on the server), for example wordpress/wp-content/media
- Make sure that the folder above has read/write/execute rights for everyone
- Upload your media (for example an image) via FTP to the folder above
- Make sure that the file above has read permissions for everyone
- Go to your dashboard, plugins section, and click on "Import files" under the "Add From Server" entry.
- Select the folder created in step 1 (in our case media)
