So, I'm new to the whole creating website kind of thing. I got a domain and a server (provided by GoDaddy). Now I understand in order to upload some content to my site I need to to use some kind of FTP software. FileZilla seemed good so I downloaded it. Now the tough part, using it.

I tried following this tutorial but I'm having a few problems. Firstly, how do I set the FTP settings? Also what exactly should I put in FTP User Name and FTP Password?

I think I understood the rest of the tutorial, but of course I couldn't know for sure until I actually test it, which requires the questions above to be answered.

Any help would be appreciated! :)

Doesn't GoDaddy allow FTP access? Or must you add it with a FTP client?

For the FTP username and password, I suggest having something really random. Maybe save several copies of a notepad file on several computers of a random password. It doesn't matter too much, just don't make it to obvious. It is like an email password. Make sure no one can suspect it.

It does provide one, however it seems somewhat limited when it comes to big files (or so they state).

Are you sure that the password and username can be completely random? Also, as I said, I have no idea how to actually set them. :rolleyes:

The username and password are either provided by the hoster or you can define your own accounts through the control panel. Read the instructions you've been given when signing up.

Well now it seems I can't even use the tool GoDaddy provides. Everytime I try to upload I get the messeges:

"Unable to upload one or more file(s)", "Software caused connection abort: socket write error".

That is probably an error to ask GoDaddy. I don't have experience with GoDaddy though.

It might be a file or something on your server.

I don't know, retrace your actions and see if any of them could have caused a problem.

That program works for 30 days than it is gone.

That's a falsehood.
Smart FTP is free to use for Personal and Educational use. Every 30 days it asks you to redownload it to make sure you have the latest version, but it is free.

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?

    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    @tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
