All hosting accounts are managed through a CP and irrespective of the type of the latter, you can always find a File Manager tool, which enables you to browse the files which you have uploaded inside the website hosting account and to execute basic operations with them, for example moving, copying or deleting. Based on the particular tool, there could be more complex functions too, like control over permissions and archives. Several Control Panels are simpler to use than others and so are their File Manager sections. Since that's the primary tool that you'll use to manage your files, it's important to check in advance what options it comes with and if it shall suit your needs, because a hard-to-use File Manager may be a burden and can make managing your web presence more complicated.
File Manager in Shared Website Hosting
The feature-rich File Manager that comes with our shared website hosting plans shall make managing your data as basic as controlling files on your PC or laptop. You will be able to drag-and-drop files and folders not just in the account, but also straight from your computer, so you shall no longer require an FTP client to upload information. What's more, the folder structure will be maintained, so files from different folders won't get mixed. You can also use right-click context menus and access different features. You shall be able to create and extract archives, to create password-protected areas plus much more. If you'd like to edit files, you could do that using a number of editors - a plain text editor, a code editor and a WYSIWYG editor, so you may pick the one you need and feel most comfy working with.
File Manager in Semi-dedicated Hosting
Our File Manager tool allows you to do just about anything you want. It's a part of the Hepsia Control Panel, included with all semi-dedicated server accounts and besides the regular features such as renaming, copying or deleting files, you will be able to use right-click menus in order to access more complex ones. With a couple of clicks, you shall be able to password-protect any folder in the account, to modify the UNIX permissions if a script-based application needs it or to alter the content of any file using plain text, code and WYSIWYG editors. What's more, you'll no longer need an FTP program to upload new content since you may simply drag-and-drop files and entire folders from your computer straight to the File Manager. The tool shall do the rest, keeping the folder structure of the content that you upload.
