Admin Login
Admin access is limited to the trip organizers, Britney and Courtney. The first time you sign in, your account is created with the password you choose.
Heads up: this is a static website with no server, so login and survey data are stored only in this browser (localStorage). It keeps the admin tools tidy but is not real security — anyone with this file can view the page source. Don't reuse an important password here. For shared, secure data, collect responses through the Google Form on the Docs page.

How To
Guides for managing the HydarPalooza site.
🚀 Upload the site with FTP
FileZilla is a free app that lets you copy the website files up to our host.
Step 1 — Download FileZilla
- Go to filezilla-project.org and click Download FileZilla Client (it's free).
- Pick the version for your computer (Windows or macOS) and run the installer.
- During install you can skip any optional bundled extras — you only need FileZilla itself.
- Open FileZilla once it finishes installing.
Step 2 — Connect to the host
Use the Quickconnect bar across the top of FileZilla and enter:
| Host | 132.148.177.63 |
|---|---|
| Username | [email protected] |
| Password | Clue: Hydar<Old Street Address>Dollar |
| Port | 21 |
The password isn't written down here on purpose. Replace <Old Street Address>
with the family's old street address (numbers/words as you'd write it) to form the full password.
For example, the pattern is Hydar + old street address + Dollar.
Click Quickconnect. If FileZilla asks about an unknown certificate, accept it to continue.
Step 3 — Upload the files
- On the right side (the server), open the
public_htmlfolder. - On the left side (your computer), open the folder that holds the HydarPalooza files
(
index.html,admin.html, and thecss,js,assetsfolders). - Select everything on the left and drag it into
public_htmlon the right. Keep the folder structure intact. - When the transfer finishes, visit hydarpalooza.org to see the updated site.
Tip: to update the site later, just re-upload the changed files and choose Overwrite when FileZilla asks.
