All Reseller Pro customers can now create FTP logins which give FTP access to a specified group of packages (or all if you so wish) at the same time.  Rather than having to login (and out) of each FTP account, they will all be displayed and accessible at once through your FTP client.

Multisite hosting

One of the biggest trends amongst web hosts is “Multisite hosting”. More and more are giving customers the ability to host multiple websites from one account. Now you can do the same.

By using our new “Multisite FTP” feature, you can offer your customers multisite hosting packages. Simply group a customer’s hosting packages together, create their username and password, and they can now access all of their hosting from one single FTP login and screen.

• Create new multisite hosting packages to sell to your customers

• Your customers can access all of their websites from one FTP login

• Group as many packages together as you like

• Set your own prices

This is also a great time saving solution for you, and will speed up your design/ dev work if you have multiple customers across multiple hosting packages that require changes.

Creating groups

To create a group, log in to your RCC and go to “Manage Hosting Accounts”. From here you can create groups by highlighting which packages you wish to group, and then clicking on the “Group” button. Once you are done, you are ready to set up your multisite FTP access.

Setting up multisite FTP

In your RCC, click on the “Master FTP and Multisite” icon. Choose which group who want to set up multisite FTP for, and which domain name the username email should sit on. Once you are happy, simply click the “Create” button.

Now you can log in using an FTP client (such as Filezilla) and access all the sites in that group. The host information your FTP client will ask for is any of the domains that are part of the group (using the format: ftp.domain.com)

If you would like to log in as a single FTP user to access all websites in your Heart Internet account via FTP, you can choose to use our “Master Multisite” feature. This can also be found in the “Master FTP and Multisite” section of your RCC.
