Did I do this right? Also, is the listed command wrong?

I am brand new to all of this. On the main Deploy page, when you click "Use latest version," it says to use:

- name: FTP Deploy
  uses: SamKirkland/FTP-Deploy-Action@v4.3.6

However, all of the examples on that page use a form of "Sync files" for the name. Does this matter or which one should I use here?

Also, here is what I have. Did I do the last parts correctly?

on: push
name: Deploy website on push
jobs:
  web-deploy:
    name: Deploy
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
    - name: Get latest code
      uses: actions/checkout@v4
    
    - name: Sync files
      uses: SamKirkland/FTP-Deploy-Action@v4.3.6
      with:
        server: SERVER_URL_HERE
        username: USER@DOMAIN.com
        password: ${{ secrets.FTP_SECRETPASSWORD }}
        port: 21
        server-dir: /htdocs/

Didn't know if I was supposed to use "ftp_password" like the example shows, or use exactly what I named the Secret. Also not sure if "/htdocs/" is correctly done.

Hi @GitHubQueenn , hope your issue is solved. If not try these steps .

1. Can you please post some logs here. This will help troubleshoot the issue better. you need to use the name that was provided in the SECRET.

2. Regarding the server-dir issue. Manually try FTP with the same credentials, using filezilla or similar software and understand where the ftp is landing. FTP home can be different than the home directory or root of the server. From there you need to try and access the /htdocs/ folder. Specify the server-dir relative to the FTP home folder
