FileZilla Forums

hi all i want a shortcut on my desktop that when double clicked will automatically open a site from the site manager and also open to a remote folder

i have looked/searched but i just can't get it to work....

if my site profile was called 'test' and the remote folder i wanted to open was '/test/some folder' what would the command line options be?

thanks

The above guide lists all command line arguments FileZilla supports.

Both together aren't possible on command line AFAIK. If you specify a Site Manager entry, you need to set the remote path inside that entry. Alternatively, use the complete FTP path instead.

trying to get it to load the site though always gives this error:

'Site path has to begin with 0 or 1.'

all i added was '--site=sitename'

See the --site parameter syntax requirements.

The 0 means the Site Manager entry has been created by yourself in the GUI. Followed by the separator slash. Then the site name (of the entry). If you organized your sites into folders you need to include that also, like:

perfect both methods working thank you
