XF 1.4 FTP Login Details

[Tower]

Hello,
Currently I login via SFTP, is there any way to configure this in the options of xenforo?

 

[Jake Bunce]

FTP is used to install XenForo. What are you trying to do?

Hey Jake,
I am setting up an addon so i can use it to upgrade addons easier. But I do everything over SFTP. I use a LEMP stack, which is a pain to setup FTP.

The addon uses the ftp information provided in the ftp area of xenforo. Thats what I am trying to figure out, since I do not use FTP and I use SFTP, how can I use the creditals of sftp to work?

That was roughly what I was trying to say: there's not "FTP area" of XenForo. Those would be options added by the add-on.

changing it to sftp:// in the host field will work, assuming this is Jon's upgrade add-on

Hey Mike! Yes it is, where is the host field? Hostname field?

I tried the ip, sftp://104.238.146.245 in the hostname field with no luck
