Trouble Finding FTP Remote Path

Hi, I am just getting started with this hosting site and I would like to use FTP so I can sync my code when I save it. I am using VSC with the sftp.json and the problem is I can’t get the “remotePath” to work. I would like to be able to instantly save and have my HTML/CSS files upload to my “soundwave” folder which is directly inside the “htdocs” folder.

My home directory: /home/vol4_7/epizy.com/epiz_24257415

Here is what I’ve tried in VCS using the sftp:Config :

“name”: “High Five the Sky Epizy Server”
“host”: “ftpupload.net
“protocol”: “ftp”
“port”: 21
“username”: “epiz_24257415”
“password”: “the password I was given”
“remotePath”: “ftp:/home/vol4_7/epizy.com/epiz_24257415/htdocs/soundwave/”
“uploadOnSave”: true

**My website URL is: http://highfivethesky.epizy.com/soundwave/index.html

**What I’m seeing is: no new changes to code edits; it is not connecting. I directly copied and pasted my username and password so I know those are correct.

**I’m using this software: Visual Studio Code

Thanks so much in advance! :slight_smile:

The remote path will be just /htdocs/soundwave/ if you’re connecting with the FTP host ftpupload.net. There is no need to input the complete Home Directory, as it’s the default root for the FTP server.
