Creating a Shortcut for an FTP Site Profile
 Click here to email this page to a friend.
With WS_FTP, all the information needed to establish a connection with an FTP server (URL, User ID, Password, etc.), is stored in an FTP site 'Profile'. These 'Profiles' are saved within your WS_FTP directory and are used every time you use WS_FTP to connect to an FTP site.

This tutorial teaches you how to create Desktop shortcuts to these FTP site 'Profiles', allowing you to launch WS_FTP and connect to your favorite FTP sites from a single icon.
