Multiple file upload
It is not possible to upload folders due to the technology used, which does not support it.
Multiple file selection is however possible, which allows sending a large number of files at once in a previously created folder.
Alternatively, you can consider uploading a zipped folder (.zip
) and extracting this archive once on the server, using the same WebFTP tool.
