I have a SlickStack server setup by an freelancer but my guys need SFTP login, I don’t know what to tell them. where is that information found, thanks again.

March 5, 2024 at 4:13 am #12650HaroldGuesthey OP, please find this easily under:
WP Admin >> SlickStack >> SFTP (tab)
It’s a section that you can see when you login to WP Admin on your WordPress backend, at the top left you should see a SlickStack section that you click and then SFTP tab is visible after you’re inside the SlickStack dashboard area.
March 5, 2024 at 4:14 am #12652ScottGuestOr you can also run this bash command:
ss info
or
ss status
Either of these CLI commands can be run via SSH and you will see the output of current SlickStack settings and includes the SFTP user/password

yep. common question, no idea why. I guess nobody can be bothered to click on the SlickStack dashboard and take a look around at the info….
April 7, 2024 at 4:21 am #21406LouisGuestI think some users assume that SS link is for a WP plugin or whatever. They probably don’t even know what is “SlickStack”
Or, clicking too fast, and didn’t notice SFTP tab
April 7, 2024 at 4:22 am #21407DanielleGuesttbh most people shouldn’t need SFTP login if they already have SSH login. and if your freelancer is asking for SFTP it might be a good sign that you should find a better freelancer, usually a red flag when their first question is “SFTP/cPanel login?”

+1
Tell-tale sign they are noobs from India/etc and 10 years behind the industry.
