Hi there! No worries, the "530 Login authentication failed" message is just a little hiccup in the connection process. First, let's double-check your credentials, making sure your username and password are exactly as you received them. Sometimes, a tiny typo or extra space can throw off the whole thing. Next, let's try a different approach. Head over to File ? Site Manager and give SFTP a whirl. This protocol might just be the missing piece of the puzzle. Hope it helps ?
