i just add a new remote project to my phpstorm workspace. if i change some code, it will be automaticly uploaded to my server (sftp). but when something is changed there, nothing happens im my IDE... is there a solution for this? phpstorm V.6.0.
thank so much for your help.
ps: i can't change the mode to svn or any other subversion unfortunately ;)

WI-1284 Auto Refresh of Remote Files
Personally, I have replaced the "Save" key mapping with a macro.
That macro does include the "automatic download" (of a folder) that I need. (from remote dev stack, to local dev machine which has my repo.)
(In addition to other steps that I want to happen "automatically".)

I used to use Dreamweaver. I've a huge Classic ASP website. I edit the files on my local system, and when done, I can upload the file(s) via ftp to the remote webserver. Now, I try to switch to VSCode. I've installed ftp-simple, ftp-sync and deploy. But can't find the set-up to get a Dreamweaver like behaviour. Eg, I have to locate for each file I want to upload/deploy, the exact location in the remote file tree.
I really feel like deploy deserves more attention. I spent the past 4 days or so to find an extension that does just that. Auto-upload to an ftp-folder from a local folder. I wanted to make git work for my website, but couldn't get that to work on the server with ftp-simple or ftp-sync because those extensions only download the opened files or open in a different temporary folder each time. I set up deploy now and got exactly what I wanted thanks to your tiny comment, thank you!
(I'm sorry if this post is too old to comment on, but I browsed Stack overflow for days to find this, so I thought it might help others in the future to point this out.)
it sounds like your just missing your mapping configuration. Most text editor FTP packages include a configuration file where you specify the server, your credentials, and the root folder of your ftp server. Have you specified this?
I'm pretty new to programming, and I'm having an incredibly difficult time making GitHub and Visual Studio Community 2015 play nice with each other. Usually the first commit goes well, and I can see it on GitHub.com just fine. But it never lets me make any more commits. I make changes to the file, save it, but the commit button in VS stays grayed out. I've been all over the Team Explorer to figure out what I'm doing wrong, and I can't figure it out. It says I have no unpublished changes or anything, even though I'm changing tons of things in the file.
Is there any reason it would stop working after the first commit?
Close VS
Open the particular .sln file from the repo
This worked for me.
You would need to add your username and email in you global configuration. Then you will be able to see the commit button enabled.
I had to add username and mail in VS to activate the commit button. The visual studio message telling me to add the data only appeared after a restart of VS. Maybe this will help someone else.
Try to use git push on git shell, the console will tell you if there are any errors, and give you searchable errors.
I think I figured it out, and as predicted, I'm an idiot. I was accidentally saving the files OUTSIDE the local repo folder. If anyone else has this problem, make sure you are saving things in the right places. Also, cloning the remote repo instead of trying to create two in each place helped a lot.
If you have a local database file, then you will not be able to copy/move the database file, and so any change in the solution cannot be committed. You have either to close the database service, close the connection inside the application or to close the solution and do the commit.
When I create a new project from existing files, in my case FTP, the application downloads the files and uploads my changes. But I miss the option which looks whether the files ON THE SERVER changed and synchronzizes it or notifies me.
Is there any option like this? I mean it's really necessary, for example when my colleague works on my project on the server with another tool like Notepad++. In this case when I would open PhpStorm, it overwrites the newer file on the server with the old without checking.
That option does not exist yet, but there is a running issue on Jetbrains, might want to check it out:

Does the Notepad++ have Local and FTP synchronizer by any plugin?? because I develop websites using PHP and notepad++ has all the features I like and its really lightweight but I had to switch to Netbeans because I use a web hosting but I always like to save the code in my computer too. and netbeans can do that, even anything you insert locally in the folder it automatically adds the folder and the files in the FTP server which is great. but if the notepad++ has the feature to at least update the files that we are saving in notepad++ in both local and ftp server I would be so glad, I search that for a long time, but I can't use netbeans anymore I lose way too much time, netbeans is really heavy!
Thanks!
NppFTP: a plugin that allows FTP,
FTPS, FTPES and SFTP communications.
Very useful for web development.
Author: harrybharry
Homepage: http://sourceforge.net/projects/nppftp/
Install it from Plugin Manager
These are NppFTP plugin panel and toolbar button
Open profile settings dialog
Then configure profiles
Just wanted to post this here for anybody looking for the same solution I was looking for... (and I think helps answer this question more thoroughly).
I keep an exact replica of my public_html directory on my local machine. I wanted to be able to double click a file on the remote server and live edit so that I had a mirrored copy on my local machine. Note: if you are looking for functionality similar to Dreamweaver's site manager... there is a feature request for that. This solution only allows your local files to get updated when you edit a remote file.
So here goes the basic connection settings (pretty standard):
h: some.ftphost.com
u: some_ftp_user
p: a_very_secure_password
d: /public_html
Then, here is where the magic comes in. Under the "cache" tab for the ftp profile, add the following:
Local path: E:\Path\to\your\local\server\public_html
External path: /public_html
The external path should be the same as the "initial directory" in your connection settings. Hope this makes sense. Please ask questions if you have any.
Then what you need is rather FTP_synchronize
double-clicking file will open it for
editing and saving file (in usual way)
will update it on server .
I actually prefer the way that Notepad++ works with FTP compared to Netbeans. Notepad++ always treats the remote file as the master copy. So when you open it, it first downloads it and stores it in the local cache. Netbeans however always opens the local copy first - you have to explicitly synchronise with the external server to pull down the files from the server. If you're working with other developers - its much better to use the server copy so that you pull down any changes by other developers.
If you want the synchronisation try these steps:
In Notepad++ | NppFTP | Global Settings | Set the Global cache to be C:\inetpub\wwwroot\%USERNAME%#%HOSTNAME% which works for IIS or change the directory to your webserver root directory
You will have to make sure Notepad++ has permissions to create directories in your server root
Download one file from the server using NppFTP so that you can see what the directory struction looks like you can probably put just %HOSTNAME% e.g. C:\inetpub\wwwroot\domain.com
Then use Filezilla to download all the files into that directory - you can also use Filezilla to check for synchronisation changes.
Then use NppFTP which will download the files into that structure.
You should then be able to access the files through localhost/domain.com
If you're the only one working on the project that should then be enough, but if there are others, or if you make changes elsewhere you can use Filezilla to check the file timestamps to synchronise.
The default install for Notepad++ has a Plugin called NppFTP on the Plugins menu. I don't know how feature-full it is, however.
Get NppFTP
Connect to ftp.xxxx.com
Double click file to open
Edit changes
Save with automatic upload
This should a quick question for some easy rep.
I'm doing some PHP Website development, decided to check out and play around with jQuery as well. I don't want to install and manage a local PHP server/service, but I would like a quick one click method for automatically uploading the PHP file I'm working on to my hosting service so I can test it live.
I'm looking into some different editors like Komodo Edit, Notepad++ but I'm wondering what tool has the ability to one click FTP for me?
Edit after a few posts came in:
Well Shoot, Ultra Edit costs around $100, and Aptana allows you to upload to their "Cloud", but you have to purchase the cloud space. I already have my own server. I'll have look into BlueFish a bit more....Thanks for the help guys.
I'm thinking I might try using Notepad++ and just write a batch file to run windows built in FTP, make a connection and copy all the files in a folder in auto-overwrite mode. Seem feasible?
I have a setup that I use FileZilla as the FTP, and NotePad++ as my text editor.
Within FileZilla, I set NotePad++ as the default text editor, and when I hit Ctrl-S within the file I am working on at that time, it automatically uploads those changes to the server.
You will be able to edit the preferences within FileZilla (http://filezilla-project.org) to set your default text editor, this is something you should be able to do with any FTP program.
Check out this post for more information: http://linhost.info/2008/01/notepad-and-filezilla-tip/
UEStudio has integrated (S)FTP, SVN, etc, plus the ability to open a file over FTP - of course, it actually just downloads to a temp file, but each time you press save, it uploads it to the server again.
I'm pretty much obliged to point out just now that you might want to reconsider your decision to avoid a local development environment. Using XAMPP, it's ridiculously easy to set up a local web server. There are a multitude of benefits to this, far too many to list, even.
The Aptana IDE can do one-click upload via FTP and also synchronize all files between your local environment and remote server (based on timestamps) with one click as well.
Bluefish can edit the file directly on the FTP server. I'm not sure if the Win32 version can do that though.
i use e-texteditor. It's some kind of textmate clone, only is better :P
I have used sublime text with sftp pluggin.
sublime3 and
sftp pluggin
You only need to config sftp file on root folder.
Works quite good.

Most advanced editors/IDE's like Zend Studio allow adding FTP servers and editing files directly. Once modified, pressing Ctrl+S would update the file on server.
