Cannot FTP to public_html

Using Virtulamin 3.73 gpl edition

When I add an Email/FTP user, all they can see when login via FTP is the .usermin and Maildir

What am I doing wrong?

you could upgrade your virtualmin version to 3.74 and see if it is better then.

It sounds like what they’re seeing is a normal FTP users home directory before any files are added. With a typical FTP user, their home directory doesn’t contain the website files, they’d need to go a few folders up the directory tree in order to find the public_html folder.

The other option is, when creating an FTP user, do so using the “Add a website FTP access user” button. With that, it’ll make the public_html folder their home directory, so they’ll immediately see the various website related files upon logging in.
