How do i access wordpress files on the server?

Posted on April 7, 2020

I installed Wordpress with the One time password route as I am not technically savvy to go through the SSH route, I am having issues with a plugin on Wordpress and I was directed to make some changes to my PHP memory limit amongst others. Kindly assist a Noob with no technical chops.

Hi there @moneyafricang,

In this case, I could suggest using SFTP with FileZilla for example in order to connect to your server and make changes to your files or upload new files.

You can follow the steps on how to do that from the official documentation here:

Let me know if you have any questions.

Hope that this helps! Regards Bobby
