Total newbie here. I'm a pretty good user of applications, but have never written a single line of code.

Running solely on local machine, MAC running Mojave. Go to install the .zip file on WP, and it asks for credentials for FTP. Not sure what I need to put …

I've got a bizarre problem with a website I'm working on. Recently, when anyone uploads images to the site, some time later (maybe an hour, sometimes several hours) one or more images disappear from the server. They still show up in the Media Library, and all the other sizes created by Wordpress are still on the server. But whatever size is being used on the page (usually the full size image, but not always) randomly gets deleted. If I replace …

If this is the wrong site for this, I apologize. I am not a Wordpress developer, but I have a small bit of WP experience. Does anyone know how I could view the file tree of a Wordpress site hosted on AWS? I am trying to migrate a Wordpress page for a non-profit from AWS to another hosting service. Unfortunately, AWS console is clogged with dozens (hundreds?) of non-descriptive product names, and something like viewing your hosted files is not …

My wordpress site got hacked, I fixed the problem but had to delete the TwentyFifteen theme (the one that was hacked).

Files created by a a non WordPress related PHP script gets another owner ID, I'm guessing that's the webbserver? If I manually create a file and want the same script to write in that I also get this permission denied. Should the WordPress installation have …
When wordpress asks for FTP information to upgrade, you type it in and then it seems to store it for future use (for future upgrades, and maybe also for media uploads?) Where does it store these details? Is it in a file? In the database? I'm trying to figure out what information is being used to access the server. Tried grep-ing for ftp in the php files and didnt see anything. This also doesn't seem to be a setting that …
I am building a new server to replace my old server and wish to migrate my wordpress website to it. The old system is nearly identical except for age and because of its age, I am forced to make several upgrades. Both servers sit in my basement where I access them directly through a terminal directly connected to the computer, so I do not (or should not) need to ftp anything. The new server is built on a new computer …

When we just moved to a new hosting, WordPress required me to have FTP account to install plugins: Now, he has turn off something (I suppose open …
