To remove an FTP user account in Plesk, follow these steps:
Step 1: Log in to Plesk
- Open your web browser and navigate to your Plesk control panel.
- The typical URL is:
https://your-domain.com:8443
(replaceyour-domain.com
with your actual domain or server IP address).
- The typical URL is:
- Enter your admin username and password to log in to the Plesk dashboard.
Step 2: Go to "Websites & Domains"
- After logging in, click on the "Websites & Domains" tab in the Plesk dashboard.
- This section will show all the domains and subdomains hosted on your server.
Step 3: Access "FTP Access" Section
- In the "Websites & Domains" tab, find the domain or subdomain associated with the FTP account you want to remove.
- Click on "FTP Access" (or "FTP Accounts", depending on your Plesk version). This will open a list of all FTP accounts associated with that domain.
Step 4: Delete the FTP Account
- Locate the FTP account you want to remove in the list.
- Next to the FTP account you want to delete, click the "Delete" button.
- Confirm the deletion when prompted. This will permanently remove the FTP account from Plesk.
Step 5: Verify Deletion
- Once the FTP account is deleted, the account will no longer appear in the list of FTP accounts for the domain.
- Ensure that you no longer need any files or data from that account before deleting it.
Additional Notes:
- Data Loss Warning: Deleting the FTP account will also remove access to the files and directories that were linked to it. Be sure to back up any important files before you delete the account.
- Permissions: If there are multiple FTP accounts for a domain, ensure that you are deleting the correct one. Only delete accounts that are no longer needed.
That's it! You've successfully removed an FTP user account in Plesk.
