KTI: How To Connect Notepad++ To XAMPP

 

I spent many hours searching for ways on how to connect Notepad++ to XAMPP. Like the way it is connected to a Web Server on the internet. But there seems to be no specific steps to what I'm looking for.

After gathering the clues ( consider forums as giving clues when the answer is not close ), trials and errors and analyzing, plus experience in IT, finally got it!

Here it is:

  • Run XAMMP Control Panel
  • Start FileZilla
  • Click Admin ( FileZilla )
  • Connect to Server ( click OK )
  • Click the User Account icon (one face) or go to Edit Menu then Users
  • Click Add ( assign a name )
  • Shared folders is: C:\xampp\htdocs ( Shared folders Page )
  • Check the box beside Files - Write option ( another bonus! I got 550 error code with this one )
  • Click OK
  • Open Notepad++
  • Go to Plugins menu, NppFtp, check Show NppFtp Window
  • Go to NppFtp Window, click Settings icon, then Profile settings
  • Create a Profile name, Hostname is: 127.0.0.1 
  • Username is the same with what you assigned in FileZilla
  • Initial remote directory is C:\xampp\htdocs
  • Close the Profile settings, click the Connect icon, then the Profile name

If successful, you will see: Nppftp - Connected to (profile name)
and the xampp folder below.

Family honors Steve Jobs

Image
 Family and friends of Steve Jobs launched an "archive" in his honor - a website with letters, videos and quotes from the entrepreneur The project was presented by Jobs' widow Lauren Powell at Vox Media's Code conference. For now, the archive works primarily as a library of materials - video fragments of his public speeches and interviews, audio recordings of interviews, and letters. Powell hopes that Jobs' thoughts, views and writings will inspire young people to do their own things. And the latter, in turn, will become a contribution to the common future of humanity.
