### Admin - Site Views Adding Editing
This admin view area, [00:03:06](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzbZlLl-xlA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h03m06s) and the site view area, should be seen as a place where you can create new admin views. Do realize that if you create a new admin view it's not necessarily linked to this component. You need to still link it in here, in settings, under admin view. This is more a place to create admin view. If you click on new or to edit existing admin views, that are linked to this component. Same goes with the site views. It's simply a way for you to gain access to editing those site views that already linked to this application easily.

### FTP Info - Updating Component
And then the forth. [00:03:51](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzbZlLl-xlA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h03m51s) We want to look at is the FTP server. That FTP server is been added to give you a hand in moving this application, the component to your server and also add the feature of that automated updating that is inside of Joomla. The update server is actually a Joomla concept. If you open a component. I'll open sermon distributor, this is the front I need to look at the back end. We look at the [00:04:39](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzbZlLl-xlA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h04m39s) XML file of this component. Component builder built this whole file for you. But at the very bottom you will see that there is an app updates server. That is being added. Now this is not added if you have not set this. If this is set to no, it will not be adding an update server. If you add this(yes) [00:05:03](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzbZlLl-xlA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h05m03s) then you can set the link to where the update server is going to be hosted. It will automatically take that link, and added into your XML file, like it's done here. That file itself, Component Builder, can also build that file for you. [00:05:31](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzbZlLl-xlA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h05m31s) The way it does it, is this should look like that: host=hostname&PORT=portINT&option(type)=FTP_BINARY. Now this FTP Binary usually is 21. And the default value FTP binary would usually be 15 and then username and a password. [00:06:04](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzbZlLl-xlA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h06m04s) Now this FTP details should login directly to this(Update Server) folder that you have up here. All that component builder does, it logs into your server, move this file in there, and then disconnects. And this information is what will make it possible for him to do that.
[00:03:51](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzbZlLl-xlA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h03m51s) We want to look at the FTP server. The FTP server has been added to make it possible to move this component to your server and also to add the feature of automated updating that is in Joomla. The update server is a Joomla concept. For example: If a component like 'Sermon Distributor' is opened and we look at the XML file of this component in the back end.[00:04:39](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzbZlLl-xlA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h04m39s) Component Builder had build this whole file. But at the very bottom you will see that there is an updates server. That is being added only if you have set it. If this is set to 'no', it will not be adding an update server. [00:05:03](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzbZlLl-xlA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h05m03s) If you add this'yes' then you can set the link to where the update server is going to be hosted. It will automatically take that link and add it into your XML file. Component Builder can also build that file for you. [00:05:31](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzbZlLl-xlA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h05m31s) This is how it should look like:(See video) host=hostname&PORT=portINT&option(type)=FTP_BINARY. Now this FTP Binary usually is 21 and the default value FTP binary would usually be 15 , then a username and a password. [00:06:04](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzbZlLl-xlA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h06m04s) Now this FTP details should login directly to this'Update Server' folder that you have up here. Component Builder logs into your server, move this file in there(See video), and then disconnects. This information will make it possible for him to perform that.
### FTP Info - Sales Server
Same goes with the sales server. The sales server usually would be very much the same concept. You will simply be adding the same kind of string here. Except usually the update server and the sales server is not the same place. [00:06:47](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzbZlLl-xlA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h06m47s) The update server, let the user know, that there is an update. Where the sales server, where this component zip file will be stored on your server. You have something like WHMCS or another component through which you are selling your extensions, you can use the folder in your server which it's looking for the files. You can use that folder, you can create a FTP account to that folder, and then set that details in this field here. Then component builder at the moment that you click compile, it has a [00:07:30](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzbZlLl-xlA&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h07m30s) an option here, it says add backup folder and save sales server. You click that to yes. If you compile it now, it will move the zip file to sales server, as well as creating a backup.
The same applies to the sales server which usually would be very much the same concept. You will simply be adding the same kind of string . Except usually the update server and the sales server is not the same place.

Whereas the sales server, let the user know where this component zip file will be stored on the server. In the case of something like WHMCS or another component through which you are selling your extensions, you can use the folder in your server which is looking for the files. You can use that folder, you can create a FTP account in that folder, and then set that details in this field (See video). If 'compile' is clicked, Component Builder shows aan option, 'add backup folder' and 'save sales server' and then click 'yes'. If you compile it now, it will move the 'zip file' to 'sales server', as well as creating a backup.
