I've uploaded all of my games to the home directory of my site but I want to move them all to a /games directory to tidy things up a bit...

How would I do this without deleting all of the stuff and re-uploading it?

Is there a FTP client (I use FileZilla) that will allow me or will I be stuffed?

I suppose I could email Freeola and give them details of all the files that need moving and see if they will do it...

Hmmmm...

I didn't think it worked but you just told me how to do it!

Smart FTP can do it.

I've moved files between directorys on many occasions doing it. But make sure you drag the files into the site "tree" on the left hand bar, and not the folder icons that appear with the files.

Filezilla won't drag and drop and nor will IE...

It isn't just Freeola either...

I'll try that other FTP software now...

Are there many files???

Why not just connect via IE's FTP and drag and drop them into the desired directory????
