SFTP (Secure File Transfer Protocol) can be used to transfer PHP files to the remote server. Ability to publish your pages without an external FTP application is the crucial advantage of good PHP IDE.
All versions of PhpED include built-in publishing tool. However, SFTP - available in PhpED Professional also brings the additional benefits of security for your data transfer. PHP SFTP combination presented in PhpED is a part of NuSphere's overall PHP Development security story. In this tutorial we will learn how to setup SFTP account in NuSphere PHP IDE.

How to setup SFTP in PhpED
Once you setup SFTP account(s) in PhpED you can use SFTP to deploy PHP files or even the whole folders with one click of a button. To setup SFTP:
- Click Tools > Accounts on the menu bar.
- In the Accounts dialog press New and select SFTP or right-click on File transfer accounts, choose New -> SFTP.
- Select an appropriate name for the account.
- Enter a Hostname or IP address of the SFTP server, and enter the appropriate Port for it (the default is 22 for SFTP protocol).
- In the Root Directory field, enter the directory you want to be used as root directory at the remote site.
- In the Time offset field set the number of hours, which separates you from the area where the remote server is located (in case if your server is located in different time zone). It's crucial, for instance, when uploading/downloading files using SmartSync feature, because files will be compared by theirs time and date.
- Define SSH settings
- Select Compression check box if you want SFTP directories to be compressed for faster transfer. Select compression level.
- Enter Authentication options: If you are not using Public key authentication, enter Login Name and Password for the SFTP server and select the Save Password check box if you do not want to enter the password whenever you transfer this project's files to that site. Public key authentication settings are described later in this tutorial.
- When you are satisfied with your settings, click OK to save changes and exit the Accounts dialog box
