@Rarst
Kindly please remove my above comment as it was written when I was angry at it.

It is a very good plugin. The best out there but I encountered some minor problems when we edit the same files with three people. I sometimes re-download file (like style.css) from server and make changes. Soon after that (like 10 minutes after) it tells me that it was modified by another program (even if nobody else is modifying it at that moment). I have to click “don’t update” and upload it again to work. It’s a bit odd. You may want to check that.

@Michael Which is why there is update in bold, recommending to use WinSCP instead. :)

Seems this addon can’t handle SFTP (SSH) secure connections :(

@id meneo Hadn't looked into that, all of my WordPress development nowadays happens in PhpStorm.

Looks pretty nice. I do myself use Filezilla/notepad++ on the fly to modify my files.
Do you know if there’s a plugin for notepad++ that includes wordpress commands? Would be nice ;-)

@Paul I had not experienced such issues myself. As per comments (and note I just added to the post) nowadays I recommend to use WinSCP instead of this plugin.

This plugin is shit. Sorry but it messes up files and doesn’t download the newest version… It’s a shit.

@Tyler From quick look it is included again in Notepad++ distribution (only in unicode version). Myself I much prefer WinSCP over plugin now. @Andrew See comments above - I highly recommend to use WinSCP for remote editing. It supports secure connections and easily integrates with Notepad++.
