OmegaNet/CAMEO EZ Clients:
Last year we had to stop using FTP (File Transfer Protocol) to upload files in order to be PCI Compliant for credit card security (see previous bulletin).
At that time we installed a new, better File Manager for you to use in addition to the image uploaders in the Admin Console. However, the File Manager still left a lot to be desired, so we took the extra step of setting up a separate server to host images only. Now when you view your images in the File Manager you are actually looking at them on a different server. Having images stored remotely will help with page-load speeds, but the biggest advantage is that you can now FTP again.
Here’s how: Use ftp://images2.cameoez.com as the host name and use your Admin Console username and password for the FTP username and password when prompted.
You can use an FTP client software program or Windows Explorer to do this. Click Here for Instructions.
NOTE: The FTP server is only for files located in the “images” folder and its subfolders, such as the “import” folder where product images need to be uploaded.
