    Hi,

    I have looked around and cant find an answer to this, probably very easy question…

    where do i copy the wp files on my ftp space, which is powered by plesk?

    I’ve read to put them in the root, or in a WWW folder. But plesk wont let me copy them into the root, and I can create a new folder in the root.

    Thanks a lot
    Cheers
    Nick

    I’m sure there’s some kind of “public” folder? There’s no reason why you can’t write to the root (there’s nothing there already?). When you make a new folder than your blog will be in yourdomain/blog or something. If that’s not what you want and nothing works, contact your host.

    Thanks.

    default folders are anon_ftp, bin, cgi-bin, conf, error_docs, httpdocs, httpsdocs, pd, private, statistics, subdomains, web_users

    when i try and add a folder in the root, plesk (or via FireFTP) denies permission.

    I have been told that plesk is self-admin, so didnt get much help from my host.

    Being completely new to this though, is it usually possible to just copy files into the root of the ftp folder, assuming I want the wp site to just show up as mydomain.com

    If I have it in a subfolder it shows up as mydomain.com/blog?

    You need the httpdocs folder, that’s the root of your website. When you’re ‘in there’ you can create a subfolder for your blog if you want.
