[Basic] Quick Tip(s) (#2) Lesson: Uploading Files!
This is part two of the chain of basic, on the go, lessons. In fact, it's not even a lesson. It's just a quick tip.

Uploading files...it can be too much of a hassle if this shortcut is not used. Here is how it goes down.

The Quick Tip:

When you upload multiple files, such as two inc/languages/English files, one inc/plugins/ file, and two inc/languages/English/Admin files, it can be hassle if you do it one file at a time.

A better way is to archive the inc folder in this case to a "ZIP", and then just upload it to root/
simple eh? This can work for every type of folder, and it'll even make the folder for you if it doesn't exist. Just make sure you upload the ZIP to root/ (My root for example, in Vista Panel) is htdocs. So I would upload my ZIP to /htdocs/

Haha thanks for the quick comment. I'm glad this tutorial could be of use.

I'll brainstorm some ideas that other people would want to know about soon, so I can create a tutorial. Until then...

Cheers!
