I've Never been asked for FTP UN & PW to install plugins. Why?

  • Hi,

    I have just bought some WP video tutorials that I have the rights to sell, and I’ve been going through them to see if they are good quality.

    They are good, but each time the guy installs a plugin, he gets a page within WP dashboard, where he has to input his Hostname, FTP Username and Password.

    I have been using WP for years and have never had to do this step for ANYTHING in the WP admin area.

    The only thing that I know of that I do differently to him, is I have always had all my sites on one Reseller WHM area, rather than basic shared hosting.

    Would that be the reason I don’t need to re-login to the server, from within WordPress?

    thanks a lot
