How to use Filezilla to transfer files via FTP Created December 11, 2017 Category FTP File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a common method for transferring files to and from local and remote computers. While the protocol has been around for many years, it remains a flexible and popular choice due to its ability to queue and transfer large batches of files, support paused and resumed transfers, limit transfer rates, and more. FTP transfers are natively supported in many web browsers while you’ll also find dedicated FTP client applications available for all major operating systems. One popular option is Filezilla, which is available for Windows, Mac OS, and Linux. Head over to the Filezilla website, then download and install the client application for your chosen operating system. Locate your FTP access credentials FTP access to your HostPapa server is secured with a username and password. Your FTP client will need to be configured with these credentials before you will be able to access the server. Log in to your HostPapa Dashboard and select My cPanel from the top navigation bar. Under Files, click the FTP Accounts icon. Scroll down the page to the FTP Accounts section. You’ll notice that one or more FTP accounts may have been preconfigured for you, when your account was commissioned. You can use these accounts to access your server, or alternatively, scroll up the page to create a new FTP account. To learn more about configuring additional FTP accounts, read this HostPapa knowledge base article. Once created, click Configure FTP Client to display your FTP account credentials. Log in to your server using Filezilla Open Filezilla and select File > Site Manager to open a panel in which you can enter your FTP account details. Hostname/Server Name – this is your domain name, with an ftp prefix (for example, mydomain.com). Port – the port number used for FTP connections to the server. Typically, port 21 is used. Logon Type – if requested, set this to Normal, rather than Anonymous. User – enter your FTP user account name. Password – enter your FTP account password. Upload files using Filezilla Once logged in to the FTP server, you’ll notice two panes on screen. The left pane displays the files and folders stored on your local computer, while the right pane displays the contents of the remote computer. In the left pane, navigate and select the files and folders you wish to upload to the server. Most FTP clients allow you to simply drag and drop files from one pane to the other to initiate an upload. Alternatively, highlight the files, right-click, and select Upload. Your files will now be queued for uploading to the server. Download files using Filezilla Downloading files from your remote server to your local computer works in a similar way. This time, navigate to the file or folder you wish to download in the right pane. Highlight the file or folder, right click, and select Download. For further questions, or if you need help, please open a support ticket from your HostPapa Dashboard. Follow this link to learn how. This article is also available in: French, Spanish, German

Import New Contacts There are a few different ways to import contacts to Mailchimp, but a file upload is the most common method. The file import process has two parts: First, you'll prepare your spreadsheet of contacts outside of Mailchimp, and save it as a CSV file. Next, you'll use our import tool to add your contacts to Mailchimp. Prepare for Import To prepare your file for import, follow these steps. In a spreadsheet program like Excel or Google Sheets, open your blank worksheet. Create and label a column for Email Address. Next to your Email Address column, create and label additional columns for First Name, and Last Name. Email Address is the only field that we require, but you can repeat this step for any other contact data fields you want to include in Mailchimp, like phone number, birthday, language, address, or country. Paste your contacts' information into the relevant fields in the spreadsheet. Save the file in CSV format. This option can usually be accessed from the File menu in your spreadsheet program, labeled as "Export as .CSV" or "Download as .CSV". Different spreadsheet programs will vary a little bit. If you use another file type, we won't be able to process the file. Nice job! Now that you've prepared your CSV file, you're ready to import it to Mailchimp. Note Need some help saving your spreadsheet file in CSV format before you import? Check out these CSV tips from Excel and Google Sheets. Or, download our sample CSV import file and replace the sample emails with your own data. Certain fields, like birthday and date, must be formatted in a specific way. Read our format guidelines for more tips about special fields. Import to Mailchimp To import your contacts to Mailchimp, follow these steps. Navigate to the Lists page. Click the drop-down menu next to the list you want to work with, and choose Import. Choose CSV or tab-delimited text file. If your last import was a CSV with the same columns, you can click Use settings from last import, which will allow you to skip steps 6-10. Click Next. Click Browse and choose the file from your computer. If you’re file contains enough contacts to raise your account’s subscriber total to higher billing plan, you’ll see an Are You Sure pop-up. Click Continue to proceed with the import, or click No Thanks to select another file. Click Next to go to the Import contacts step and match the columns in your import file to the fields in your Mailchimp list. We’ll automatically match the columns in your import file to fields of the same name in your list. For example, the column that contains email addresses will match the required Email Address field. Click Edit to choose a different column name and field type from the drop-down menus. To create a new field, click the drop-down menu and choose New Column Name. Repeat Step 7 for all unmatched columns. You must match or skip all columns to complete your import. After you're finished matching, we'll display a success message. Click Next to review your final import settings. On the You're all set to import! screen, click the status drop-down menu to choose the type of contacts you’re about to import. The available statuses for contacts are: Subscribed Unsubscribed Non-subscribed Cleaned Optional: If you want to assign tags to your imported contacts, click the plus (+) icon in the Organize imported contacts section and choose or create tags as needed. Review your settings and click Import. After the import is finished, we'll send a notification to the email address associated with your username. Note Imported subscribers don't go through the signup process, so you'll need to verify that you have permission to email them. When you import subscribers to an existing list, we won’t include any duplicate, bounced, or unsubscribed addresses that are already stored in the list. Because all lists in Mailchimp are independent of each other, we can't detect duplicates, bounces, or unsubscribes across multiple lists. If you have duplicate contacts in different lists, you may find it helpful to combine your lists into a master list that uses groups or tags. Update Existing Contacts
