 * I newly registered a host service, and it’s my first time installing WP. When
   I upload WP, FileZilla says post.php already exists. So, I have to choose replace
   the old one with the new one.
    When I check both server and my local folder, 
   I see there’s only one post.php. Although I don’t see 2 post.php file, but, should
   I choose replace, or just skip and keep the old post.php ?
 * Thanks!

 * This can be a problem with your ftp server or the ftp server from your host. 
   If both files are the same size then I shouldn’t replace it. If one is larger
   then the other one, then I should keep the largest one.

    their size are different, the new one is bigger and nearly
   1 year newer. ok, I keep the new one.
