I’ve been happily using the FTP Mirror action for years now and have just received a request to add another site to the list… but the server requires sftp (port 22, ssh variant).&nbsp; Can FTP Mirror support SFTP connections?

No, SFTP (which uses SSH) is a very different protocol that is badly named (not at all like FTP), the mirroring code would have to be completely rewritten. It’s on our todo list to look at, same applies to FTPS (which is normal FTP over SSL).

Thanks, I understand.&nbsp; Any idea how far down the list it is?
