Floorplan Live Service - This service uploads/downloads updated stand data. If a Red cross appears here please ensure that your computer/network can access this URL - https://efd-floorplanlive-sync.floorplanlive.online/ (you may need to speak to your IT Dept.) When you click on this link it should load a page which says 'Server Error' 403 - Forbidden: Access is denied.
SVG, PDF, Logo Upload - These items use FTP (File Transfer Protocol) to upload required files, if these have a red cross next to them please ensure that your computer/network can access this range of ports (you may need to speak to your IT Dept.)
FTP uses random ports from 5000-6000 for the PASV data channel and uploads to this URL - ftp://resources-ftp.floorplanlive.online
