I installed Wordpress on my droplet, and I want to install another theme and some plugins, but Wordpress is asking for FTP credentials. But I am using vsftpd and ssl to login with passphrase.
So what should I specify for the hostname? Should this be the ip address, or should it be mysite.com?
If I am using vsftpd and ssl with passphrase, what should I provide for the username and password?
Wordpress seems very difficult to setup on a droplet, but maybe its just me.
Thanks in advance.
