Personally, I wouldn't use the file manager, but FTP ... the file manager is a security problem too. :-) Monika addicted to writing code ... can't get enough of databases either, LOL! my toolbox: Textpad - Compare and Merge - phpMyAdmin - WS_FTP - Photoshop - How to search the forum Interactive Media Award July 2007 ~ category E-Commerce my advice on the forum is for free, PMs where you send me work are considered consultation which I charge for ...

♥Monika in Germany Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 what do u mean security probem ?? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> anyone finding out your login/pw to the admin would be able to change files too, not only grab customer information. I just had a midnight call from a customer whose son spilled the pw and they had someone do mess in the admin --- TG I had deleted the file manager link/file. :-) Monika addicted to writing code ... can't get enough of databases either, LOL! my toolbox: Textpad - Compare and Merge - phpMyAdmin - WS_FTP - Photoshop - How to search the forum Interactive Media Award July 2007 ~ category E-Commerce my advice on the forum is for free, PMs where you send me work are considered consultation which I charge for ...

jeffy777 Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 I would upload via FTP because that way you can always make a backup. Sometimes backups are a real lifesaver when a mistake is made installing a contrib or even making a simple change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
