RW Classic keeps creating duplicate path folders to the root folder of my server when uploading. Never happened before. Is this a software glitch? Regardless of the ftp path I use (including the one given by my provider Bluehost. com) It keeps creating duplicate paths based on what is entered into the ftp publishing path in RW classic. Any ideas?

I’m not sure I fully understand what’s going on.

Can you share some screenshots of your FTP setup and your server window?
