You may not have FTP or FTPS running on your server (either by choice or decision).
In order to manage that, there is a simple workaround you can implement.Add
define(’FS_METHOD’,’direct’);
to your wp-config.php file and the data access will be filesystem-direct.
Good show, Random Tech Solutions!
Thanks for the tip – very useful if you don’t run FTP, surprised it’s not a WP-admin config option.
