I am baffled as to what settings to use to log into Filezilla.

I have used http://www.[mydomain].com and my wp-admin lofin and password

plus http://www.[mydomain].com and my Ipage login and password

plus

http://www.ipage.com and my ipage login and password

Noneof these work… 🙁

The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

if your webhost is ipage, please contact ipage support team for guidance to set up your FTP access so you can use at tool like FileZilla. (You might need to set up a new FTP user in ipage)

(The login details for the WP-Admin area are not useful for FTP access)

Thanks Lisa.

The FTP settings are set according to IPage (whose phone support now appears to have been ditched and replaced by a very slow and undermanned Live Chat). I do indeed have an FTP account.

Still no connection though.

I think I will ditch Filezilla and use a Backup Plugin. Updraft would not install – does anyone know of a good alternative?

I use BlogVault.net plugin/service (not free)
