The Website Hosting Ninja File Manager

Publishing data files with an FTP tool is an out–of–date and quite an unsafe way of transferring data files from your PC to a web server. That’s why, we have included drag & drop data file publish support in the File Manager. Simply drag the data files that you want to add from your PC into your web browser and they’ll begin to publish in your website hosting account over a safe SSL communication.

You don’t need to install any extra software package, web browser plug–ins or web apps. The drag–and–drop function works equally well on Windows, Linux and Mac.

Due to the right–click menus we have included in the File Manager, you can edit your files easier than ever. Click on a file or folder and from the pop–up panel, find the actions you want. You can rename, copy, move, download, edit, preview, archive, unarchive and delete any picked file. When you click on a folder, additionally, you will see the solution to make a new sub–folder or file inside.

If you select many different files or folders, it’s possible to apply identical procedures to all of them simultaneously.

The File Manager provides an internal archive/unarchive option that will help you submit substantial archives and extract them in to your account in seconds. Any time compressing a file or directory, it’s possible to decide on the name of the archive that is to be created and its extension – .ZIP, .RAR or .TAR.GZ. Additionally, it will be easy to compress active files or folders with merely a mouse–click.

The archive/unarchive option available from the File Manager allows you to use large files directly from your Web Site Control Panel. No need to employ any third–party software for instance an FTP client in order to upload a large file to your cloud hosting account or download an archive to your desktop.

With the File Manager it is easy to revise your files instantly online when using any of the internal instruments. The text editor displays the files in a plain text formatting, the code editor provides syntax accentuating for one’s .PHP or .JS files, and the WYSIWYG editor lets you to see all the edits while they show up live. All the changes which you come up with and keep are going to be demonstrated instantly on the Internet, which means you can review them within your browser and go back to generate more edits, if unhappy.

There is no need to download any files whatsoever, to revise them in your desktop and to re–upload them back to your account. Each of the editors are accessible using the buttons at the top of the file table or at the right–click context menus.

All of the files within your web hosting account are neatly sorted into directories. Every single web host has its own main directory, which uses the file structure which you have defined. This way, it is an easy task to take care of all of your hosts from one location with no chance of becoming lost or puzzled.

By default, you’ll see all of the hosts conveniently placed in a table and when you click once over a given host, you’ll see the whole set of sub–folders and files associated with it. By clicking on twice, you will visit a page which is dedicated to that host alone. A further way to open the folder associated with a particular host and to use it exclusively, is by using the drop–down menu near the top of the main File Manager file table.

The vast majority of web File Managers are sluggish and hard to employ. They feature modest possibilities and aren’t really straightforward. We aim to improve that by means of the Website Hosting Ninja File Manager. It is made to be intuitive and also to look like a product you are already well aware of – the File Manager on your personal computer system.

All of its capabilities, the drag–and–drop file upload solutions, the right–click context menus, the integrated file editors, etcetera exist for one purpose – to create controlling your site(s) more simple.

You can handle a great number of files at the same time using the multi–selection capability of the Website Hosting Ninja File Manager. All you need to do is actually hold down the Control key and then click on the files or directories that you like to pick. Should you want to select a selection of files/folders in a row at once, click on the first file/folder, click the Shift key and then pick the final file or folder within the set.

When you have chosen the wanted files/folders, you can either drag them to a specific location, or employ different actions to them when using the right–click contextual menu or maybe the buttons at the top of the file table.

There is a single typical way for you to protect a directory with a password – by making an .htaccess file. In case, however, you aren’t technically skilled sufficiently, you will have difficulties doing the work all on your own. For making things easy for you, we have added an intuitive password protection interface to the File Manager readily available within the Web Site Control Panel.

To employ the option, simply right–click on a folder and select Password Protection. Following that fill in the user name as well as the password that you would like to work with and then press the button. That’s it. The particular folder is going to be concealed by the standard users and will also be accessible just to previously approved account holders.
