How to manage Wordpress Files through SFTP?
Hello Digital Ocean,
I am currently trying to access my wordpress directory on my droplet, through SFTP. When I sign in and gain access, the /root directory is empty except for a file called WORDPRESS, which is only 1.3kb large.
How can I get in there and edit all my files so that I can add new templates and such?
Here is a screenshot.

I’m an idiot. I just needed to go to the /var/www folder.
You might consider creating a different user to manage your website. Using root for doing everyday things on your server can lead to ..undesirable.. results.
Was the /var/www folder something you were able to access in your admin area? or through SFTP?
