You mean something like this?

ftp://user:password@ftpserver/url-path

So

ftp://hello:123456@mydomain.com/url-path

is that right? how can my user "hello" can log in my ftp ? for me i can log in if i type ftp://mydomain.com with admin and pass,but for other user they can't,any ideA?

ftp://user:password@ip:port is what I do.

Any of the suggestions should work. If they can't login, seems the FTP account wasn't setup properly.

but the thing is when it pop up a window asks me about user and passowrd,i put my user and pass and press ok ,but it keeps asking me user and pass -->doesn't let me log in

As mentioned in my last post. Try re-creating the ftp user account in Cpanel. Possibly it didn't take, or wasn't created properly. Try to create another one, and try again.
