This Drag and Drop FTP program is the easiest way to maintain your site up to date
CoffeeCup Direct FTP is a dynamic piece of software that helps make the FTP process intuitive and easy. It's with you every step of the way — from making last-minute edits to previewing, organizing and uploading your work, and then backing it up, just in case. CoffeeCup Direct FTP was designed to be user friendly, but just because it's easy to use doesn't mean it's not powerful. It only takes two clicks to connect to your server, and one click to preview your Webpages and images. If you're satisfied with what you see, all you have to do is hit Save, and Direct FTP handles the rest for you, automatically saving the changes directly to your Website. It even lets you keep an eye on the whole process with the FTP Activity Pane. This neatly ordered window makes complicated FTP logs a thing of the past, giving you a clear overview of the status of your file uploads and downloads. It even lets you pause or cancel your file transfers. Direct FTP offers full-fledged local and remote file management, so you can add, move, and launch files all with a simple double-click. And because file transfers often take place between a pair of folders, we created a neat feature we call Combo Bookmarks. This helpful tool takes you to your local and corresponding remote folder with just two clicks! CoffeeCup Direct FTP allows users to edit text and HTML.Direct FTP is the only FTP software that incorporates a full-featured HTML editor. This means you can easily create, edit, or update a new Webpage, and then save the document locally, directly to your server, or both. Just drag a file to the Edit window to make changes. HTML Code Completion helps you make edits faster, and at the same time ensures that your code is clean. Here are some key features of "CoffeeCup Direct FTP":
Edit Files From Your Server: · Direct FTP has had this feature for a while, but now it's better than ever! Simply choose a file on your server and click the Edit button. The new Direct FTP gives you plenty of room to work, a clean interface, and the ability to manage and edit lots of files at once. Oh, and did we mention the crisp new code completion
Code Completion: · It's a fact: the more you have to type, the quicker you'll wear out your keyboard and tire your hands, wrists, and fingers. Give your keyboard and hands some much-needed rest with Direct FTP's code completion! Start typing any HTML tag or attribute, and Direct FTP will help you finish the code automatically. It even properly closes your HTML tags for you. Talk about a boost in efficiency.
FTP Activity Pane: · FTP logs are cryptic and difficult to read, right? No need to worry about that with Direct FTP! The new FTP Activity Pane cleanly outlines everything you've done. When you upload or download your files, the FTP Activity Pane shows the progress and result of the transfer. You'll also see it here when you open a file in Direct FTP's File Editor or Image Previewer. If an error occurs, it will be shown in a clean, readable way. This really keeps the process of managing your site seamless and user-friendly.
FTP, SFTP, FTPS, and More: · You need a program that can handle all the different flavors of FTP out there. In Direct FTP, you now have a choice between an array of different protocols, including FTP, SFTP, FTPS, and their different methods of encryption. Direct FTP can now even handle HTTP. · All of these acronyms sound a bit overwhelming? Don't worry. It's enough to know that Direct FTP can now connect to practically any type of FTP out there.
Combo Bookmarks: · This new feature is powerful and elegant; it's the strong, silent type. You may not realize it yet, but once you start using it, you'll wonder how you ever got by without it. Basically, combo bookmarks act like normal bookmarks, except it lets you save the local AND remote folders, then call them both up simultaneously at any time. This works wonders for managing your files. Call up any combo bookmark with just two clicks, and you'll quickly be zipping along with your file management.
Browsing History: · Forget where you left that important file? Direct FTP didn't. It remembers where you've browsed in a session on your local computer and keeps your tracks neatly tucked away in a drop-down menu. Accessing a folder you've already been to is effortless. Click the drop-down, select the folder, and you're there. Requirements:
