 * In the admin under settings > media, you can have it so that the files are not
   organized into year or date folders, but that’s about it.
 * Plugins will always be uploaded to the plugins folder and uploads in the uploads
   folder.

 * Yeah, but the default location for FTP is /wp-content/plugins or themes
    I need
   it to be /htdocs/wp-content/plugins or themes

 * That shouldn’t matter. If you put all of the wordPress files in that folder, 
   the WordPress install will figure it out.
