ការប្រើប្រាស់ FileZilla

FileZilla is an open-source FTP-client and FTP-server developed for the Windows operating system by Tim Kosse (Germany) et.al. It comes in both a Javascript and non-Javascript version.

Filezilla may be used to manage your WordPress site by uploading and downloading files and images. This article will guide you through the process of installing and using Filezilla to manage your WordPress powered blog hosted on the server.

For more information about FileZilla, view the list of features at the project site.

Why would I want to download FileZilla?


It's fast, stable, easy to use, and free. FTP is a standard way to upload or download files between your local system and your web server, and FileZilla is an solid client for everyday FTP needs.

Setting Up the Options


You will need the following details regarding the FTP account on your server:

1. Your website ftp address (usually ftp://example.com if your URL is http://example.com)
2. Your ftp username
3. Your ftp password

If you do not already have an FTP account on your server, use your cPanel or website administration tool to set one up -- it will have all the information needed. If in doubt, ask your host for directions or help regarding an FTP account for your use to access your webspace.

In the top left, click File then Site Manager

This next screen needs completing, and then we can get down to business.

Figure 3: Ftp details

1. Click New Site then name the new connection to what you want (example: My blog server).
2. Enter the ftp address for your website. Usually, if your website is http://www.example.com, then the ftp address will be ftp://ftp.example.com or ftp://example.com. Do not put a / at the end unless specifically told to do so on your cpanel or by your host.
3. Leave this setting at FTP, and the Port number should also be left at 21. Only change these if your FTP account details explicitly indicate that you should.
4. Ensure that the Normal button is checked. (In later versions of the software the buttons are replaced by a pull-down list from which you can select Normal)
5. Put in the full username that you have been given. It may be just a username, or it may look like an email address (but it isn't one). For instance, it would look similar to user or user@example.com
6. Now enter your password. Remember that the password might be case sensitive.

Click Save and Exit. (Click OK in recent versions)

Connecting


In the top left of the Initial Screen (Figure 1), click Site Manager, and the screen you last saw (the FTP details screen, Figure 3) will pop into view. This time though, click the Connect button on the bottom.

If all is well, then in the top window of Figure 1, you will have seen a series of messages, and in the large window, you will see a listing of the files will appear.

Troubleshooting


If you had a problem, then it is time to go troubleshooting! Look at the top area (Figure 1) and check the messages.

1. If there was no attempt to connect, then the ftp address is wrong. All it needs is one character to be incorrect and it will fail. Click the red X, break the connection and click the Site Manager to check what you entered.
2. If it says that the user does not exist, check the Site Manager setting and ensure that it reflects what your FTP account details provided by your host says, or use the webserver administration interface provided to you by your host to re-check the existence of the FTP account. You may want to ask your web host for some assistance, too.
3. If it says Incorrect Login, your password could be wrong -- again, check it carefully, and watch your case (capitals and small letters).
4. If it says Could not retrieve directory listing you may need to change the Advanced setting for your connection in Site Manager, so that Passive transfer mode setting is set to Use passive mode.

របៀបបញ្ពូន (Transfer) ប្លក់ WordPress មួយទៅប្លក់ផ្សេងៗទៀត

How to Transfer a Wordpress Blog from One Host to Another
http://www.amitbhawani.com

Do you want to Transfer a Wordpress based blog from one web hosting company to another one? Then you might find this tutorial helpful because we are going to actually transfer a website and recommend you the most important steps which should be taken care of while moving the website.

• Step 1 : Taking a Backup of Database
Login to your Cpanel of the Hosting Account and click on the ‘Backups’ option , where you will find all the options to download a backup of your ‘Home Directory’ or ‘MySQL Database Backups’. Select the correct database of your blog and download a backup of the same. You can directly download the ‘Home Directory’ which has all the files and themes but its recommended to manually login to your ftp and download your Blog Theme, Plugins & Images from your Wp-Content > Uploads folder.

• Step 2 : Installing Wordpress
In this step you need to login to your new web host and install a fresh copy of wordpress, using Cpanel. It takes a maximum of 5minutes to do a clean installation of wordpress using Cpanel. Read this Wordpress installation tutorial which can help you with easy screenshots.

• Step 3 : Restoring Database
Once you complete installing a fresh wordpress blog, you need to restore the database which you previously downloaded. Visit the Cpanel > Backup option where there is a option to ‘Restore a MySQL Database’ . Browse the database from your PC and restore it. Based on the size of your database it would take time to restore. Once this is done you need to copy the config.php file details from your previous host and upload in the new host which connects the new wordpress blog to the uploaded database.

• Step 4 : Restoring Design, Plugins & Images
Start uploading the theme of your blog to your wp-content>themes folder, plugins previously installed to your new blog at wp-content>plugins folder and the Images to the Uploads folder. Once this is done you can directly visit your blog and it will be fully working without any problems because we have restored everything which was essential for your blog.

Make sure you dont delete anything from your Old host unless your installation on your new host is completely successful. You should always keep backups on your system and always a fresh installation is recommended because this way you are overcome compromised files, broken codes etc.
