How do I connect to an FTP server using the Dolphin file manager in KDE / Kubuntu

My preferred way of connecting to an FTP server in Linux is to use Filezilla, however if you use the Dolphin file manager in KDE you can also connect to an FTP server via the Dolphin file manager.

Since there is no editable location bar in Dolphin, we first need to go in to the Dolphin settings to display it.

To do this goto Settings >> Configure Dolphin



Click on Startup then select Make location bar editable



Once you have applied the changes, you just need to enter your ftp address ftp://youraddress in the location bar, then enter your username and password to connect to your FTP server




Please Note: To close the connection to your FTP server, you need to logout of KDE.
