FTP to local host

I am using windows xp, I have successfully installed the word press stack and accessed the wp-admin area. I am attempting to “upload” or replace some template images. Normally on a remote site I would ftp into the remote server and navigate to the appropriate images folder and upload. with the local dev environment made possible by Bitnami, what IP address/port/username/password would I use?

Hi,

BitNami Stacks does not include any ftp server. If you installed in your machine you can replace any file directly. The Wordpress main folder is in “C:\BitNami Wordpress Stack\apps\wordpress\htdocs”. If you want to access to your computer from another computer you can install the Filezilla Server (http://filezilla-project.org/). I hope it helps.

Thanks for the explanation, I found the directory and made the changes. I did follow the link provided and it was “404”

Hi,

You should remove the last ) that has been taken as part of the link by mistake: http://filezilla-project.org/

Please note that this is only needed if you want to send the files through FTP from another machine to the one where you have installed the stack.
