The dwt file itself doesn't necessarily need to be uploaded just the changed pages.

Sinbad ECT Moderator USA 65937 Posts	Posted - 11/29/2017 : 13:56:10 Hi Mike, Expression web does have built-in ftp under Site settings > Publishing tag. I use the ip address and set the directory to the correct location on the server - Also check the box use Passive FTP.

Sinbad ECT Moderator USA 65937 Posts	Posted - 11/29/2017 : 14:30:59 Hi I see the dwt files is referenced on the pages and if EW is setup with the correct meta data as in the link then the dwt file should update when you make a change to the header / left nav/ or footer areas.

Andy ECT Moderator 95440 Posts	Posted - 11/30/2017 : 00:21:07 I wouldn't personally use Expression Web to upload files, much better to use a standalone program like Filezilla https://www.ecommercetemplates.com/help/ftp-upload-filezilla.asp Andy Please feel free to review / rate our software
1818charlie ECT Moderator United Kingdom 1194 Posts	Posted - 11/30/2017 : 02:15:13 Do you have any firewall / security software that could be causing the inbuilt FTP of EW to not play ball? It's worth a checking through the whole settings for EW. As a Dreamweaver user since DW2 I've always used a third party FTP client, Filezilla.

1818charlie ECT Moderator United Kingdom 1194 Posts	Posted - 11/30/2017 : 02:27:01 Just had a rummage about online and found this. This post dates back 5 years and in the original post the user has used Filezilla and connected without issue using their same settings that EW is configured to. https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/expression/en-US/b4b52812-87b0-4056-8955-bc6fe5636684/expression-web-4-cannot-connect-to-website-error-message-could-not-open-data-connection-to-port?forum=web Steve The worlds safest web server is the one that is turned off
