hi, FTP question please

[acejase]

hi, still trying to get head around this, can i just ask?

i have pretty much made a big mess, i have files and folders published all over the place many unlinked and stuff.

is FTP used to tidy all this up? if i delete everything in FTP and then republish all the neccesary saved files in bluvoda, does that remove everything useless?

is this neccesary, does it matter?

Re: hi, FTP question please

A FTP is used to manage your files and folders on your website, not necessarily for the specific reason for tidying up your files.

If you delete everything in your public_html and republish just the files you want it will get rid of the unneeded files. But unless you are actually viewing the files through such means as a FTP, the file organization doesn't really matter. Its not hurting anything if there are a bunch of extra files on your website, you have plenty of web space. It only matters if it is so cluttered that when you look at a list of the files it impairing your ability to find the one you are looking for.
