CentOS, SFTP and WordPress

Posted January 29, 2014

Hi,

I have followed https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-install-wordpress-on-centos-6--2 and have WP working fine.

However my next step is the best way to enable WordPress to update automatically AND have a SFTP user account which is bound specifically to the WordPress directory

Is this possible? I’ve tried many things but I can’t get all the elements working together
