    Hello
    I’m rather new to programming, I have been convinced to practice at home before I go out into the big world. I’m using Wanp64 as a local host wth wordpress loaded on a few projects on my Cdrive, I have tried in as many ways as I can to connect my NP++ to my local server via the NppFTP plugin but, it repeatedly tells me “Disconnected”.
    what am I doing wrong
    cheers
    Thomas

      @Thomas-Ryan

      well it could be a lot of things, like you misspelled the hostname or ip address,
      chose the wrong port, used the wrong protocol, wrong user or password …
      But without having more details how your server is setup and what you did,
      we hardly can say what the problem is.

      Afair, NppFTP has a function to show a log - this should give you more details about
      what is going wrong.

      Cheers
      Claudia

          Additionally for nppFTP of interest:

          • version of the plugin you use
          • which protocoll FTP, SFTP, FTPES, FTPS
          • you could use e.g. https://test.rebex.net/ or some public ftp server for testing how the plugin should work.
