Publish to a Web Site using Ftp
In This Topic
If you wish to publish to a web site that is not running on Azure and does not support IIS Web Deploy, you can create an Ftp Publishing Target to publish using Ftp.
In order to publish using Ftp, your web hosting provider must support Ftp. You need to contact your web hosting provider for Ftp server and login details.
Creating an Ftp Publishing Target
- In the Document! X Build Profile Editor, select the Publishing page.
- Click the New toolbar button.
- On the displayed New Publishing Target dialog, choose the Ftp option.
- A new Ftp Publishing Target is created and selected for edit.
- Complete the connection and login fields with the values provided by your web hosting provider for Ftp upload.
The Target URL field is the URL at which the content is located once it has been deployed. This setting is not required for successful publishing, but it allows the publishing results to show a convenient link to open the published content once the publishing is complete.
Note: Only specify the root URL and not the landing page - i.e. http://myhost.mydomain.com/ and not http://myhost.mydomain.com/webframe.html.
