   My earlier question was about editing an active plugin and it messed up and then I keep getting an error message. So I got some advice to use FileZilla and go to the site and then rename the plugin and it will resolve the problem.

   But now, when I try to access it, here's my FileZilla message:

   Status:Connecting to [IP ADDRESS]... Error:Connection timed out Error:Could not connect to server Status:Waiting to retry... Status: Delaying connection due to previously failed connection attempt... Status:Connecting to [IP ADDRESS}... Error:Connection timed out Error:Could not connect to server Status:Waiting to retry... Status: Delaying connection due to previously failed connection attempt.

   How do I fix this? :O

   THanks

   Have you configured Filezilla correctly ??
   Alternatively , almost all hosts give access to your files via you web-browser (file-manager) .

   The connection via FTP with your host is independed from WordPress . Get in contact with the customer-support service of your host .
   Have you tried an alternative connection method , as almost all hosts allows access to files via a browser (like cPanel's file-manager) .
