<h1>Configuring Filezilla to upload photos etc.</h1>
<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:
<ul>
<li>At the bottom of the "Bookmarks" drop-down menu you may see "Expo-uploads";
if so, click on it.
<li>If you can't see "Expo-uploads" in that menu
(because this is temporarily broken in version 3.28 of Filezilla),
click on the "File" menu item and select "Site Manager...".
This will display a tree-structured menu in a sub-window and one of the items will be "Expo-uploads". Highlight it
and then click on the "Connect" button at the bottom of the sub-window.
</ul>
<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>
Once you have uploaded your files, ask someone who knows to move them to the right place.
