I guess it's much the same as Filezilla, but just built in. BTW, there's no fancy control panel (cheeky) you just have to edit the PHP file (which always makes feel like a super-cool hacker ;-) ) Pinksy, you’re not the first to mention that, I must have a look.

It's a built in FTP client, so you don't need another program - very handy. You can right-click on a file and go to Properties to change the permissions using tickboxes like Filezilla, or chmod numbers if you really want to. In terms of the problems with the Wordpress plugin, I'll hurry up and post my code. To make sure I ('Pinksy') am filtered out of the list, I just added it to the condition of the SQL ("where comment author is not 'Pinksy'" sort of thing). The only thing it doesn't do is have a fancy control panel like Chris's does, but it works... Chaps – I use the FireFTP plugin for Firefox.

To chmod my file I use my FTP client, Filezilla, which allows you to tick checkboxes on the various write permission options, and a little dialogue underneath gives you the number code. Don't think you really want 777 though, as that's writable by everyone. All I had to do was open the PHP file in Wordpad, add my name to the relevant string, then upload & activate. If you want more detail let me know. HTH That’s the plugin I’m using.

My name was on the list though and when I tried filtering my URL and name it wouldn't work. Apparently you need to chmod the .php file to a 777 permission. My host admin doesn't have that permission code :( It has 755 and a bunch of others in the 600 range, but not 777. It was the 'Show Top Commentators' plugin. Version 1.02 by Nate Sandon.
