FTP Website Image Hosting

I run a handful of Wordpress websites, and I've been trying to solve a problem that exists, but no one seems to have written about it.
I want the images on my websites to be served via FTP to the visitor.  That is to say, when someone clicks on one of my websites, the images and videos, are served in parallel, over FTP, with the HTTP request.  All the media files are self-hosted.  Summarizing, I need a self-hosted CDN that serves images and videos in parallel with the HTTP request.
For example:
When http://www.mywebsite.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/image.jpg is called on to be served, the image actually comes from a dedicated FTP connection such as ftp://cdn.mywebsite.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/image.jpg
The CDN sub-domain is setup as an FTP specifically as a "content delivery network" (CDN).
While I know there are Wordpress plugins that can handle this, to say the least, they're more work than necessary.  I already have file compressions being handled on the server side, and browser caching in a htaccess file, but I can't get the CDN over FTP configuration, and I can't find any documentation to make this happen.
I know this can be done, and it's something that should be incorporated into Apple Server.  For now, does anyone know how to set this up?  If you know, or have a link to documentation, that would be great.
Thank you, Tom

If you put you images in iDisk/Sites, then the url will be http://homepage.mac.com/username/imagename.jpg (or whatever kind of image file you are using).

  • FTP Website Offline, Not Sure How to Bring It Back Up

    Since you are open to alternative solutions, try SynaMan. It is a replacement for FTP. You can install it on your existing file server (Windows, Linux or Mac) and let your clients upload/download files.
    All you will have to do is configure your network firewall so your clients can connect from the Internet. Call our support department if you need help in setting it up.
    SynaMan uses HTTP for file transferring instead of FTP. Therefore, on the client's end all you need is a browser.

    Hey All, so the previous admin here where I work setup our company website and FTP website etc. Today, this computer with Filezilla crash and burned, being new to web hosting and FTP in general, I am tasked with bringing this website back up. Essentially, users where able to click a link on our website that brought them to an FTP directory with certain files that we make available to view for them. I am completely at a loss on how to bring this back up, and essentially tried everything to my wits end. We are using GoDaddy as a hosting service, I load up Filezilla Client, connect with my hosting adress and User Name, Filezilla (client) than shows a directory of files that are on my main website, but not the directory that held FTP files, I used to upload the files to that site "ftp.mysite.com" through a shared drive on my computer,...

    Please advise
    Thanks,

  • How can I open and edit files that were developed and published by ftp to my host on my old macbook, which I can no longer access.

    How can I open and edit files that were developed and published via ftp to my host on my old macbook, which I can no longer access. The HD containing the files cannot be accessed. I want to be able to download the published files to be edited in iweb?

    You CAN'T download published files and then edit them in iWeb because iWeb can't open them - it has no import facility so is unable to open any html or css files - a previously published site.
    You can download these files yes, but you'll need to use them as a guide or to cut and paste text from there whilst you re-build your site in iWeb.
    The only other way is to download the files and then open them with an html editor such as TextWrangler or use one of the other web design programmes out there that is capable of importing html and css such as Dreamweaver of Flux 4.
    These are your only alternatives as iWeb can't import and if you want to continue to use iWeb, then you'll have to re-build your site from scratch.  If you do just remember to back up your domain.sites file this time around - it is found under your User/Library/Applicaion Support/iWeb/domain.sites.

  • Trying to emulate this websites image gallery

    Hey everyone.
    I wanted to imitate this websites image gallery using
    DreamWeaver, and I wanted to know what would be the basic steps to
    break it down. Here is the site:
    http://www.tompaiva.com/maritime02.html
    I wanted to be able to replicate this for my own site, but
    also wanted to see if anyone here could help me break it down..What
    exactly is going on here? Do I need layers? Do I need tables?
    Speaking of tables, how did the designer get the captions to
    go directly underneath the image? That's pretty much all I want.
    The reason being is that I also need to teach this to someone else,
    and they need to know how to upload and maintain their site
    themselves. Can anyone help me out? I would really appreciate it:)
    Thanks

  • Pre 2010 Macs not seeing netboot images hosted on 10.6.7 server

    I'm having an interesting issue where any pre-2010 Mac will not see available images hosted on OS 10.6.7 Server. Anything later than mid-2010 has no issues and sees all of the available boot images when option booting. Does anyone have any insight as to why this might be happening. I'm still searching but not having any luck.

    Just a shot in the dark but is it possible you have enabled some kind of filtering  under Netboot/Settings/Filters? My box to enable is unchecked.
    Thanks

  • Fired up my first Azure Website to host some virtual tours... ftp uploading and page loads super slow.

    I upgraded my plan to BASIC... any idea why FTP upload are so slow?  When I go to my pages, they are loading slowly too.

    Hi,
    First, please have a look at this article to see how to use FTP in azure:
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/kaushal/archive/2014/08/02/microsoft-azure-web-site-connect-to-your-site-via-ftp-and-upload-download-files.aspx, based on your description, the pages loading slowly, this issue only occur in your first time to loading? If yes, I
    think it is normal, If you mean the initial request takes long and then any subsequent requests are fast, then that would be because you are hitting .NET apps cold start. Many .NET apps are slow to JIT and load all their .NET requirements, but once everything
    is loaded, they are fast. If I misunderstanding, please feel free to let me know.

  • Can I password protect my FTP website

    My site was built in iWeb 3.0.4, and originally hosted on MobileMe. Now it's hosted by a local service provider via FTP, so the "Make my published site private" option is not available to me any more.
    I'd actually like to build an Intranet for my company, which will include confidential info like locking up the building, passwords etc., so it's really important to limit access to employees only.
    Is there a way to do this?

    You can password protect a website directory - it's not completely uncrackable but will do for most purposes. The method is described here:
    http://css-tricks.com/easily-password-protect-a-website-or-subdirectory/
    This requires createing an .htaccess file and one other similar - the dot means they are hidden. Not all services will allow this. The page tells you what to put in the file; to create it, create the file in a plain text editor and call it htaccess. Upload it to the directory in question, then using your FTP program rename it to add the dot on the beginning, .htaccess - it will promptly disappear.

  • FTP to web hosting site - permissions denied to modify

    When I use ftp://userid:[email protected] and go to my website to modify the contents (drag in new images or updated html files), I can't. I can navigate to the folders and see the contents, but it doesn't allow me to modify. What am I doing wrong?
    I can open Parallels and use Windows, IE and do it no problem. But that stinks.
    Thanks in advance!

    What am I doing wrong?
    Nothing. Safari is a web browser but not a fully fledged ftp client.
    Use something like [Cyberduck|http://cyberduck.ch> for full read/write ftp'ing instead.

  • Several image-hosting sites won't load correctly - what is going on?

    slow dial-up, photobucket pages won't load correctly - tested other hosting sites, same problem - they look like they timed out or got disconnected mid-load. Problem started several months ago - prior to that PB loaded slow, but always worked.
    also have some trouble veiwing imgur images posted on discussion forums.
    have not noticed any other websites giving trouble, but I don't surf around much. have done all kinds of things as directed by PB help people, advice here on Firefox, all updates are complete, no extensions or add-ons, scanned, cleared, refreshed, etc etc etc. security is malwarebytes and MS Security Essentials.
    Problem also happens in IE, so what else can I do? is it just my slow connection? why did it suddenly start happening? connection speed (crawl) is the same as always. help! thank you!

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • Error when downloading from a certain website. image scrambled. (kepguru.hu)

    I have been downloading wallpapers from kepguru.hu for about a year, with no difficulty or errors. This (hungarian) site is successful and user friendly, even though I do not understand the language. <br />
    About 3 weeks ago, this all just stopped working for me. I can access the website, view pages of thumbnails, and reach the big thumbnail stage. But when I click on download, and wait for the image to load, all I get is a partial, and scrambled image. In other words, it is as if the image has been cut into pieces and put back together in the incorrect order. <br />
    I have tried almost every setting I can think of, including resetting Firefox....twice, with no positive results. If I opt to 'reload' the tab/page, Firefox tells me "the image cannot be displayed because it contains errors". (it is not possible that every one of the millions of images on this site can suddenly contain errors.)<br />
    I have written to kepguru.hu directly enquiring as to whether there are problems with the site, and they have replied in the negative, and suggested I try a different browser.<br />
    I downloaded, and tried Google Chrome and internet explorer. I have also tried Google, Bing and Yahoo as search engines and all these produce exactly the same results.<br />
    I do not think the problem is with my computer, since I have 3 computers in the house all working independently of each other, and the results are the same on all of them.<br />
    I am connecting by means of dsl/wireless router/wifi. My computer is protected by Kaspersky anti virus.<br />
    I sincerely hope that there is someone who can help me find a solution to this problem.<br />
    Thank you<br />
