Dreamweaver FTP Sucks - Dreamweaver FTP Problems - Filezilla Plugin for Dreamweaver

Let it be said that I hate Dreamweaver’s FTP. Yes, Dreamweaver FTP SUCKS. The FTP client included with Adobe Dreamweaver CS3, along with every other version of Dreamweaver that I’ve used, is so painfully slow and worthless. I’ve experienced way too many “Operation time out - canceling…” errors in a row for my own sanity. Sometimes it helps by ticking the Passive checkbox but that certainly does not completely the solve the problem, especially if you’re uploading a ton of files. If only there was a way to add a Filezilla plugin to Dreamweaver, then I would be happy. But of course that will never happen…

    Hmm….. strange.

    I use Dreamweaver’s FTP function every single day and I’ve never had this problem. Maybe it’s a connecton (or setup) issue for you?

    Cheers,

    Dude. I just Googled, “Dreamweaver’s FTP Sucks” because I hate it so much. A filezilla plugin would kick major arse. I feel your pain.

    it doesn’t even support ftpes… @mister E - u probably only use one server, for those of us who have to interface with different servers every day it is annoying.

    I can drop to command line and manually upload files faster than using the crappy built-in implementation in dreamweaver cs3.

    I just don’t understand how you could screw up FTP that bad!

    HA! I googled that as well, and here i land. I have had the same problem time and time again in cs3 and cs4. Sometimes I even have to go into the backend and reset my user and pass because it gets slamed by the dreamweaver FTP ha! Filezilla just got downloaded and I fear i will not look back, although i do wish there was a good solution inside dreamweaver to save time
