FTP, FTPS and SFTP connections built in. Saved connections let you browse, connect, disconnect and edit site files without switching to a separate transfer app for routine work.
Create, edit and configure saved site connections from the Projects palette (Window ▸ Projects, F8) or with File ▸ New Connection… (Ctrl+N). Open a project folder first: a connection belongs to a project.
Work with web hosting that offers FTP or FTPS access.
Connect over SFTP when your host offers it. The first time you connect, the app shows the server's key and asks before trusting it, and it tells you if the key changes later.
Open remote folders, inspect files and keep server projects separate from local work. The File menu has the commands for the connected site:
| Command | What it does |
|---|---|
| Connect To | Lists the project's saved connections; pick one to connect. |
| Refresh Remote Tree (Ctrl+R) | Reads the remote folders again. |
| Download from Server (Ctrl+Shift+S) | Copies the selected remote files into the local project. |
| Publish All (Ctrl+Enter) | Saves every open file with unsaved changes to the server. |
| Put Project on Server… | Uploads the whole project folder, after asking. |
| Disconnect (Ctrl+Shift+K) | Closes the connection. |
The Transfer palette (Window ▸ Transfer, Ctrl+9) shows the transfers in progress.
The connection sheet keeps protocol, host, port, remote path, credentials and passive mode in one form before saving the site. Credentials are stored in the Android Keystore.
