Step-by-Step Guide to Upload Admido to Webspace
- Download and Extract Admido Download: First, ensure you have downloaded the Admido zip file from the official website. Extract: After downloading, extract the zip file using a program like WinRAR, 7-Zip, or built-in extraction tools in your operating system. You should see a folder named admido after extraction.
- Install an FTP Client If you don’t have an FTP client, you need to install one. Cyberduck is a popular choice and is available for both Windows and Mac.
Download Cyberduck
:
Visit the Cyberduck website and download the appropriate version for your operating system.
Install the application by following the on-screen instructions.
- Gather Your FTP Credentials To connect to your webspace, you need the following FTP credentials, which you can typically find in your hosting account:
Host: This is usually your domain name (e.g., your-domain.com) or an IP address.
Username: Your FTP username (often the same as your cPanel username).
Password: Your FTP password.
Port: Default is usually 21 for FTP.
- Connect to Your Webspace Using Cyberduck Open Cyberduck: Launch the Cyberduck application on your computer.
Create a New Connection
:
Click on the Open Connection button (usually found in the toolbar).
Enter FTP Details:
In the connection window, fill in the required fields:
Server: Enter your host (e.g., your-domain.com).
Username: Enter your FTP username.
Password: Enter your FTP password.
Port: Leave it as 21 (default for FTP).
Example:
Server: your-domain.com
Username: your_ftp_username
Password: your_ftp_password
Port: 21
Choose Connection Type:
Make sure to select FTP (File Transfer Protocol) from the dropdown menu if prompted.
Connect:
Click Connect. If your credentials are correct, you will connect to your webspace, and the file structure of your server will appear in the Cyberduck window.
- Upload the Admido Folder Navigate to the Correct Directory:
In the Cyberduck interface, navigate to the directory where you want to upload the Admido folder. This is typically the public_html or www directory.
Example:
Navigate to:
public_html/
Upload the Folder
:
Drag and drop the admido folder from your local file explorer directly into the desired directory in Cyberduck.
Alternatively, you can right-click in the right panel of Cyberduck and select Upload to browse and select the admido folder.
Example:
Drag the admido folder to the public_html directory in Cyberduck.
Monitor the Upload:
You will see a progress window showing the upload status. Wait until the upload completes. Depending on the file size and your internet speed, this may take some time.
Verify Upload:
Once the upload is complete, verify that the admido folder appears in the target directory (e.g., public_html/). You should see the files and subfolders that were part of the Admido package.
- Set Permissions (if required) Change Folder Permissions:
After uploading, right-click on the adm_my_files folder (inside admido) and select Info or Permissions.
Set Permissions:
Change the permissions to 777 to allow full read, write, and execute permissions.
Example Permissions Setting:
Owner: Read, Write, Execute
Group: Read, Write, Execute
Public: Read, Write, Execute
cPanel File Manager
If your web hosting service uses cPanel, you can upload files directly through the File Manager. Here’s how:
Log in to cPanel:
Access your hosting account and log in to the cPanel dashboard.
Open File Manager:
Locate and click on the File Manager icon, usually found in the "Files" section.
Navigate to the Desired Directory:
In the File Manager, navigate to the public_html directory or the appropriate folder where you want to upload the files.
Upload the Admido Folder:
Click on the Upload button in the toolbar.
In the upload interface, you can either drag and drop the admido folder or select Choose File to upload a zip file.
Extract the Files (if you uploaded a zip file):
If you uploaded a zip file, select the file in the File Manager, and then click on the Extract option in the toolbar to unzip it.
Set Permissions (if necessary):
Right-click on the adm_my_files folder (inside the admido directory) and select Change Permissions to set the appropriate permissions (e.g., 777).
SSH (Secure Shell)
If your hosting provider allows SSH access, you can use command-line tools to upload files. Here’s how to do it:
Access Your Server via SSH:
Use a terminal (Linux/Mac) or an SSH client (like PuTTY on Windows) to connect to your server.
The command typically looks like this:
ssh username@your-domain.com
Use SCP (Secure Copy Protocol)
:
If you have the admido folder on your local machine, you can use scp to copy it to your server. Open a terminal and run:
scp -r /path/to/local/admido username@your-domain.com:/path/to/remote/public_html/
Replace /path/to/local/admido with the path to your admido folder and /path/to/remote/public_html/ with the path to your server’s public_html directory.
Set Permissions (if necessary):
After the upload, you may need to set permissions using:
chmod -R 777 /path/to/remote/public_html/admido/adm_my_files
Cloud Storage Services
You can also use cloud storage services (like Google Drive, Dropbox, or OneDrive) combined with your web hosting control panel. Here’s a general way to do this:
Upload to Cloud Storage:
Upload the admido folder to your preferred cloud storage service.
Download to Your Server:
Use your hosting account’s control panel to access the terminal or file manager.
Use wget to download the file directly from the cloud service, if supported. You can generate a shareable link to the file and then use that link in the command:
wget https://your-cloud-storage-link.com/admido.zip
Extract the Files (if you downloaded a zip file):
If you downloaded a zip file, use the unzip command:
unzip admido.zip
.
Using a Local Development Environment
If you are developing locally, you can upload files directly to your web hosting using local development tools
GIT
(like Local by Flywheel, XAMPP, or MAMP)
and then push changes to the server.
Develop Locally:
Set up your project locally and ensure everything works as expected.
Deploy Changes:
Many local development tools offer deployment options or plugins to push your local changes directly to your live server.
