Here’s what you’ll need:

  • Your FTP or SFTP login details (host, username, password, and port number)
  • An FTP client like FileZilla (or one recommended by your hosting provider)

Once you have these, here’s how to proceed:

  1. Download the plugin: Grab the Poptics zip file and save it to your computer.
  2. Unzip the file: Extract the zip file to access the plugin folder.
  3. Upload the files: Open your FTP/SFTP client and navigate to your site’s wp-content/plugins folder. Upload the extracted Poptics folder here.
  4. Overwrite if updating: If you’re updating the plugin, overwrite the existing Poptics files. Don’t worry—your settings will stay safe.

Once the upload is done, head back to your WordPress dashboard to activate or update Poptics!
