All website hosting accounts are managed via a Control Panel and regardless of the brand of the latter, there's always a File Manager tool, which allows you to browse the files that you have uploaded in the web hosting account and to execute basic operations with them, for example moving, copying or deleting. Depending on the particular tool, there could be more complex features too, including management of permissions and archives. Many Control Panels are easier to use than others and so are their File Manager sections. Since that's the main tool that you'll use to manage your files, it is important to check in advance what options it provides and if it will appeal to you, because a hard-to-use File Manager could be a burden and could make managing your presence online harder.
File Manager in Web Hosting
The feature-rich File Manager which comes with our web hosting plans shall make handling your web content as basic as handling files on your computer or laptop. You will be able to drag-and-drop files and folders not only in the account, but also straight from computer system, so you'll no longer require an FTP client to upload information. What's more, the folder structure shall be preserved, so files from different folders will not get mixed. You may also use right-click context menus and access a variety of features. You will be able to set up and extract archives, to set up password-protected areas and a lot more. If you'd like to edit files, you can easily do that via a number of editors - a plain text editor, a code editor and a WYSIWYG editor, so you may choose the one that you need and feel most comfy working with.
File Manager in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our File Manager tool allows you to do pretty much anything you want. It is an element of the Hepsia Control Panel, that comes with all semi-dedicated server accounts and besides the standard features such as copying, deleting or renaming files, you will be able to use right-click menus to access more complex ones. With a few clicks, you'll be able to password-protect any folder inside the account, to modify the UNIX permissions if a script-based application needs it or to change the content of any file using plain text, WYSIWYG editors and code. What is more, you will no longer need an FTP program to upload new content because you could just drag-and-drop files and whole folders from your computer straight to the File Manager. The tool shall do the rest, conserving the folder structure of the content that you upload.
