<h1>Configuring Filezilla to upload photos etc.</h1>
UNDER REVISION
[[This will have a configuration file to download and use..]]
<p>Before continuing, make sure that you have the "cavey:beery" password for the expo server. You will need it.
<p>Having installed Filezilla using the <a href="uploading.html#install">installation instructions</a>, you now need to import a configuration file to set it up to use with the public expo server.
<ul>
<li>Download the configuration file <a download href="zilla-uploads.xml">zilla-uploads.xml</a> to your default downloads folder. (Select the option to download it in the pop-up, you don't want to open it in a web browser.)
<li>Open Filezilla and start it running.
<li>Click on the "File" menu item, and select the "Import..." command, this will open a file browser on your local machine
<li>Navigate to your default downloads folder and select the <b>zilla-uploads.xml</b> file.
<li>Now select the "Bookmarks" menu item: at the bottom of the drop-down menu you will see "Expo-uploads". Click on it.
<li>You will now be prompted for the password for the expo server. This is the "cavey:beery" one which we never write down or write in emails. Get it verbally or by phone or secure text message from another expoer.
<li>Now you are in and can copy and move files anywhere. But please don't: stick to copying files from your machine (the left window) to the server (the right window):<br><br>
<a href="fzexample.png" border=2><img src="fzexample.png" align=center width=65%></a><br>(Click to enlarge).
</ul>
<p>
but it's easy, just connect to ftp://expo.survex.com and type in the usual password when a popup asks you. Go to the folder /expofiles/uploads and dump your stuff there. Then ask someone who knows to move it to the right place.
Once you have uploaded your files, ask someone who knows to move them to the right place.
<h2>More expert use</h2>
Instead of putting everything in /expofiles/uploads/ why not do it properly? Go back to the "Uploading Photos" page and find out.

<p>You do need to know the expo password.</p>
<h3>Installing Filezilla</h3>
<h3 id="install">Installing Filezilla</h3>
<p>This software works identically on both Windows and Linux.
<p>Filezilla is an "FTP client". This means that it connects to servers using a venerable service called "file transfer protocol" i.e. FTP. It looks a bit like copying files from one folder to another on your desktop but it works between different machines.

<p>
To make the admin's life easier, create your own folder in <pre>/home/expo/expofiles/uploads/</pre> with your name like this: <pre>/home/expo/expofiles/uploads/YourName/</pre> and put your files into that folder. ("YourName" should have no spaces, hyphens or underline characters.) So that the admin knpows who is responsible. And for goodness sake please don't upload lots of duplicate photos: cull them first to just the good ones.
<h2>Experienced users</h2>

<p>OK the person you have been asking to move the files to the right place is getting fed up and now wants you to put the uploaded photos in the right place yourself. This is where they go:
