Applied as FTP client substitutes, web file management tools have always been slow and poor in features. Still, with the File Manager integrated in the Site Host Pros Web Control Panel, you will not only employ a fast, intuitive and user–friendly file managing interface, but also an app that will make an external FTP software unnecessary. Take a look at several of the characteristics that we have integrated into our File Manager.
Drag–and–drop file uploads
Add data files with ease
Moving data files between your personal computer and any of your web sites is now simple and fast, because of the drag & drop option offered by the File Manager. You can easily drag data files from your personal computer and drop them in your Web Control Panel over a secure SSL connection. That’s all. It requires seconds to upload a data file and slightly longer for bigger files and directories.
You don’t have to add any third–party software or Internet browser plugins. The drag’n’drop capability included in the File Manager performs just as well on all leading operating systems.
Right–click context menus
Control all files with just a click of the mouse
A large number of File Managers specify all of the activities which you can execute with a file or folder at the top of the webpage. We think that the latter is just not intuitive enough. With the File Manager, you can get all of the file administration options whenever you right–click a file or folder. This method is likewise applicable for different files/folders.
It is possible to rename, copy, move, download, edit, preview, archive, unarchive and delete just about any file or directory you decide on with simply a mouse–click.
Archive/Unarchive files
Manage huge files conveniently
On account of the built–in archive/unarchive solution, the File Manager helps you to deal with enormous files and not having to use FTP. You’ll be able to shrink a directory to a compact size by clicking on the Compress button or gain access to the items in an archived directory through the Extract button. When compressing a directory or a list of files, you are able to select the archive extension (.ZIP, .RAR or .TAR.GZ) in addition to the name of the archive file.
Online file editors
Edit files straight from your Web Control Panel
From your File Manager it’s possible to manage your files directly online applying any of the inbuilt tools. The text editor reveals the files in a plain text format, the code editor has syntax highlighting for one’s .PHP or .JS files, and the WYSIWYG editor enables you to view your edits when they show up live. All the changes you create and keep can be demonstrated instantaneously on the Internet, allowing you to review them inside your browser and go back to generate further edits, if not satisfied.
There is no need to download any files, to modify them with your PC and then to re–upload them back to your account. All of the editors are available via the buttons near the top of the file table or at the right–click context menus.
A logical folder structure
All of your files arranged inside a simple method
If you are in charge of a bunch of sites concurrently, it’s crucial that you have every little thing arranged. With other File Managers, editing a lot of different web sites in the same website hosting account can be quite difficult. Using our File Manager, you will see that it’s in fact pretty simple. Every web site features its own folder, which you’ll at once acknowledge, and all the files associated with the given website are placed there.
And then to make everything even easier, you will find a drop–down menu from which you can quickly select on which web host you wish to work within the File Manager. Our clever system will lead you there within seconds.
A user–friendly interface
A File Manager devised for people
The vast majority of online File Managers are sluggish and pretty difficult to apply. They give you reduced options and typically are not really straightforward. We strive to improve that with the Site Host Pros File Manager. It’s created to be practical and to appear like something you you are already familiar with – the File Manager on your personal computer.
All of its attributes, the drag’n’drop file upload options, the right–click contextual menus, the built in file editors, etcetera exist for 1 purpose – to create taking care of your website(s) a lot easier.
Work with multiple files
Adjust many different files all at once
The File Manager will help you save a plenty of time whenever using multiple files. You can actually select different files at the same time and use a preferred action for them exactly like you do with your desktop machine or notebook. To select random files at once, just hold down the Control key, and to select a number of nearby files, press the Shift key. It’s that simple.
After getting chosen the files, you can actually at once transfer them to another spot thanks to the drag–and–drop option. With the help of the right–click context menu as well as the buttons on top of the file table, you can use a myriad of other actions – you’re able to copy, rename, delete, download and modify your files, change file permissions, etcetera.
Quick & simple password protection options
The easiest way to take care of your details
If you want to password–protect a directory in your site, you will have to set up an .htaccess file manually. However, this generally is time–consuming and complicated if you aren’t well–experienced in Linux web hosting. Using the File Manager, you may create a password–protected folder and hide all its items from any users with a couple of mouse–clicks.
Everything you need to complete is right–click a folder, pick Password Protection and choose the Add selection. And then just specify a user name as well as a pass word. No supplemental setup is required and there’s no reason to contend with an .htaccess file. Our system will manage every thing for you.
