    Excellent plugin, no fuss, no, setup, nothing. Just install, activate, and go!
    In Ubuntu 16.04 the php-ssh2 has been giving problems with WP automatic updates. This plugin doesn’t require php-ssh2 while offering the ssh functionality for updates. There’s no setup required after activation, in the plugin. You setup your SSH parameters in your wp-config, for your FTP-user, wp-user, as in example below:

    define(‘FTP_PUBKEY’,’/home/wp-user/wp_rsa.pub’);
    define(‘FTP_PRIKEY’,’/home/wp-user/wp_rsa’);
    define(‘FTP_USER’,’wp-user’);
    define(‘FTP_PASS’,”);
    define(‘FTP_HOST’,’127.0.0.1:22′);

    I would strongly recommend donating to this plugin.

    Thank you for such excellent public service!
