Thank you for replying, but is there any way to present this as a “WordPress FTP for Dummies” book would?
Also, I am unable to upload files to my FTP, so even doing this only gets me so far.
If you can’t add files by ftp on godaddy, something is jacked on their end…..
there is no reason you should be unable to do that. And I’m sure whatever is blocking you is also blocking WP
Wouldn’t you know it? Just successfully added and deleted a test file from the FTP. Appears that permissions via FZ are fixed.
However, still unable to access via WP admin. Also, still need an English translation on how to update wp-config.php file.
define('FTP_CONTENT_DIR', '/path/to/wordpress/wp-content/');
define('FTP_PLUGIN_DIR ', '/path/to/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/');
(The paths above need to be changed to actual paths)
define('FTP_USER', 'username');
define('FTP_PASS', 'password');
define('FTP_HOST', 'ftp.example.org');
(Put the real info in above)
Put the above lines in your wp-config.php
download file and open in notepad or similar
back it up
add the lines with correct info above /* That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */
save file
upload back to site
Here’s what I did. Took the “define” section of the PHP file:
define(‘AUTH_KEY’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);
define(‘SECURE_AUTH_KEY’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);
define(‘LOGGED_IN_KEY’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);
define(‘NONCE_KEY’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);
define(‘AUTH_SALT’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);
define(‘SECURE_AUTH_SALT’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);
define(‘LOGGED_IN_SALT’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);
define(‘NONCE_SALT’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);
And added your additions to it:
define(‘AUTH_KEY’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);
define(‘SECURE_AUTH_KEY’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);
define(‘LOGGED_IN_KEY’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);
define(‘NONCE_KEY’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);
define(‘AUTH_SALT’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);
define(‘SECURE_AUTH_SALT’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);
define(‘LOGGED_IN_SALT’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);
define(‘NONCE_SALT’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);
define(‘FTP_CONTENT_DIR’, ‘ftp://username@domain.com/wp-content’);
define(‘FTP_PLUGIN_DIR ‘, ‘ftp://username@domain.com/wp-content/plugins’);
define(‘FTP_USER’, ‘username’);
define(‘FTP_PASS’, ‘password’);
define(‘FTP_HOST’, ‘domain.com’);
Still not working. Where did I mess up?
–Andrew
define(‘FTP_CONTENT_DIR’, ‘ftp://username@domain.com/wp-content’);
this needs to be the path to your wp-content directory, you can get the path to your html folder from godaddy main admin panel. Then add the rest. Mine would be: /home/content/r/v/o/rvoodoo/html/wp-content/
define(‘FTP_PLUGIN_DIR ‘, ‘ftp://username@domain.com/wp-content/plugins’);
follows the same logic as above, with plugins/ added to the end
define(‘FTP_USER’, ‘username’);
this would be your ftp username
define(‘FTP_PASS’, ‘password’);
this would be your ftp password
define(‘FTP_HOST’, ‘domain.com’);
this would be your domain name
Thank you. Updated as follows:
define(‘AUTH_KEY’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);
define(‘SECURE_AUTH_KEY’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);
define(‘LOGGED_IN_KEY’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);
define(‘NONCE_KEY’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);
define(‘AUTH_SALT’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);
define(‘SECURE_AUTH_SALT’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);
define(‘LOGGED_IN_SALT’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);
define(‘NONCE_SALT’, ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx’);
define(‘FTP_CONTENT_DIR’, ‘/home/content/xx/xxxxxxx/html/wp-content/’);
define(‘FTP_PLUGIN_DIR ‘, ‘/home/content/xx/xxxxxxx/html/wp-content/plugins/’);
define(‘FTP_USER’, ‘xxxxxxxx’);
define(‘FTP_PASS’, ‘xxxxxxxx’);
define(‘FTP_HOST’, ‘domain.com’);
Still no luck logging in. Any other suggestions?
