Just recently I ran into an issue where  colleague and I spent quite a bit of time on a Technical Issue a ser was having

To get this to work (FINALLY!) I had to install an SSH/SFTP Plugin
SSH SFTP Updater Support

Once I installed the plugin I followed the steps it provided for setting the FS_Method as 'ssh2' in wp-config.php BUT I also added the credentials to make sure WP did not ask for it.

I added the following to the wp-config.php right after the WP_DEBUG:

define( 'WP_DEBUG', false );
define('FS_METHOD', 'ssh2');
define('FTP_USER', 'FTP-USER-HERE');
define('FTP_PASS', '*USERS-FTP-PASS*');
define('FTP_HOST', 'FTP-HOSTNAME:SSH-PORT');

EXAMPLE:

define( 'WP_DEBUG', false );
define('FS_METHOD', 'ssh2');
define('FTP_USER', 'fixstuff');
define('FTP_PASS', '@lway$f!x!ngTh!n@$');
define('FTP_HOST', 'fixyourwordpress.com:22');

I was then able to install plugins with Ease on the WP 4 Site. 

I wanted to make note of this incase someone had/has this issue and somhow stumbled on this page.

I like WordPress and I like to think I know most the ins, out, and even in betweens, but this one near had me ready to learn Drupal..
I'm no longer mind boggled!! Thanks for the educational challenge BOSS!
