WordPress Mobile Redirection Using FTP Client

There are over 62.6 million WordPress sites worldwide. This is one of the most popular platforms many of our customers use so we wanted to share a simple way to redirect WP sites to mobile using FTP (File Transport Protocol).

1. You will need to have a FTP Client such as FileZilla >> You can download it for free at filezilla-project.org
2. Log into FTP (File Site Manager)
   • New Sites
   • Type in Host
   • Type in Username and Password
   • Hit Connect
3. Make sure you are connected to the server
4. ** This is for WordPress only >> find the file named index.php in root folder
5. Copy file onto your desktop
6. Open file using Notepad
7. Log into your White Label back-end (ex: admin.yourwhitelabel.com)
   • Go to the specific site in need of redirection
   • Click Integrate on the left menu under Mobile Site Settings
   • Scroll down to PHP and copy the PHP code given
8. Go back to the index.php file and paste it into Notepad and save it
9. On FTP Client >> rename index.php to indexold.pohp
10. Drag new file that was just edited onto FTP labeled index.php
11. Test!
