All hosting accounts are handled via a CP and regardless of the brand of the latter, there is always a File Manager tool, which allows you to look at the files which you have uploaded in the hosting account and to carry out basic operations with them, like moving, copying or deleting. With respect to the specific tool, there could be more complex functions also, including control over permissions and archives. Some Control Panels are simpler to use compared to others and so are their File Manager sections. Since that's the primary tool that you'll use to control your files, it's essential to check in advance what options it provides and if it'll suit your needs, because a hard-to-use File Manager could be a burden and will make managing your presence online more challenging.

File Manager in Shared Web Hosting

The File Manager tool, which is part of our in-house built Hepsia Control Panel, will enable you to administer all the files you upload to your shared web hosting account with ease. You are able to move files and entire folders by dragging-and-dropping them inside the account. You can upload content in the same way - select a file/folder on your personal computer and drag it to your Internet browser in which the File Manager is loaded. By right-clicking a file or a folder in your account, you may also access context menus with more complex options - you'll be able to set up or to unpack an archive, to create a password-protected area, to modify the UNIX permissions through a web interface or to change the content with numerous editors without ever leaving the Control Panel – an HTML editor, a plain text editor or a code editor. We have also provided help articles and video lessons, that you can access right from the File Manager to find out more about its features.

File Manager in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you host your sites within a semi-dedicated server account with us, you will be able to take advantage of our feature-rich File Manager.

It takes only a mouse click to create, rename or delete a file or a folder inside your account and for your ease and comfort, you'll be able to sort the content by type, name, size or last modified date. As the File Manager supports drag-and-drop actions, you can swiftly transfer any content within the account, including folders, and their structure shall be preserved. If you would like to upload any content, you will no longer need an FTP program, due to the fact that you could drag-and-drop the folders right from your computer system. The File Manager also features more advanced features and you'll be able to alter file permissions, to use archives and to edit files with plain text and HTML editors, that could be accessed through right-click context menus.
