Operation Manual

340 Previewing and Publishing
• Passive mode: Leave checked unless you have FTP connection
problems (check with your ISP). ISPs can operate passive or
active FTP modes of operation.
• Web site URL: Set your site's URL. This allows you to view the
web site from a dialog after FTP upload.
• In the Advanced box, you can optionally enable Secure FTP by
uploading using one of two encryption protocols—TLS 1.0 and
SSL 3.0. Check Encrypt connection, then choose the Protocol.
You'll need to confirm with your ISP whether encryption (and
which protocol) is supported, implied or otherwise. The SSL
Implied option makes the ISP's FTP server encrypt on initial
contact to default port 990 or a custom port (edit Port number).
• Click OK to close Account Details.
You can also use the Upload to Server dialog at this point to Add... another
account, and Copy..., Edit or Delete an account selected from the drop-down
menu. It's a good idea to test your new or modified account by clicking the Test
button—if the test is successful a dialog will display stating that a connection
has been established.
If you add additional accounts you'll need to select which account to
use from the drop-down list in the FTP Account box.
You can choose to Save FTP account details either to your machine (account
details will be saved into WebPlus and won't be lost, even after Ctrl-Runup) or
into the current site.
6. If you've set up at least one account and clicked the Update
Account... button, the Publish to Web dialog appears with the last
used account name shown in the drop-down menu and its settings in
subsequent boxes. The drop-down menu lets you swap to another
account. Select the account you want to use (if you've more than one).
7. If your site is using a database, the Merge before publishing option is
checked. Clear this option only if you do not wish to merge changes
(the option will be grayed out if no database/changes are detected).
For more on databases, see Using database merge in WebPlus Help.
8. For the greatest control over the publishing, ensure that the
Unattended upload check box is cleared. This will allow you to
