just login to to the ftp , there will be wordpress files that you could right click and copy to your pc once you edit them then you upload the new file

31,009 Pointsit really is what you name that folder. You have to know how to navigate your ftp server.

11,161 PointsNot sure if you figured this out for yourself but I had the same problem. Login to cPanel (or whatever content management system came with your hosting service). Go to your file manager, select the home directory when it asks which directory to open. Then under public_html you will find all the word press folders shown in this video.
