Issue Summary
Hi
When I specify a directory in the settings, it is not visible in my ftp client.
If I upload files via the webfm file manager, they are not visible in my ftp client.
If I create the directory with my ftp client and put files in there, they are not visible in my wefm file browser...
Thanks
Glenn

This likely isn't a drupal issue. Please familiarize yourself with unix permissions (I'm assuming your server is apache) and set them accordingly for the directories you are operating on.

Am using a Windows Server in this instance. Have made the site_root/files directory writeable, when I set the WebFM settings, I get a message telling me that the directories have been created, but I still can't see them when I browse for them with my ftp client, or when I log into the hosting machine using Remote Desktop.
Thanks

Closing this because IMHO it's not a bug and no other reports have been added.
If files uploaded by webfm are seen via webfm, then they are on the server. Not seeing them via FTP or RDC probably means either your looking in the wrong place or Windows access rights is preventing them from being seen.
Also, files simply placed in webfm root directories will not appear in webfm. They need to be added to the database using either the cron process or the admin "add files to directory" icon. This is as designed.
