Uploading work via FTP is an important aspect of work for many. Thus we decided to integrate it with Voila. However, some of our users got back to us as they were unsure how to upload an image via FTP to a specific folder other than the root folder. So we thought why not write about it to make matters simple.

As you know, when you have an image ready to be uploaded, you have to first configure your FTP account by entering details such as the Account name, Server URL, User name and Password. Once done, the images will be uploaded to the root folder whenever you select the publish via FTP option.

But what if you want to upload an image to a specific folder in the FTP? Mention the specific folder name in the Server URL field in Voila Preferences. Add a forward slash (/) after the Server URL and mention the name of the folder (/Folder name); the same is shown below:

If you want to change the folder, you just have to change the folder name, and the images will be uploaded to the folder mentioned. Now ain’t that easy?

You will get to see some great uploading options in our upcoming release, making uploading and publishing with Voila a mere breeze.
