The Don Webhosting File Manager

Transferring files between your desktop machine and any of your sites is now fast and simple, thanks to the drag & drop functionality provided by the File Manager. You can easily drag files from your desktop computer or laptop and drop them in the Online Control Panel via secure SSL communication. That’s it. It usually takes a few seconds to upload a data file and a bit longer for larger files and directories.

You do not have to install any third–party software package or browser extensions. The drag & drop functionality included in the File Manager performs just as well on all main operating systems.

We’ve given our best to make your File Manager as intuitive as it could possibly be, so you’ll be able to generate alterations to your files. In addition to the normal control bar at the top of the webpage, we have now also included right–click context menus with all the basic file administration possibilities. Simply click on a file or folder and pick the activity which you want from the selection that will pop up.

It is possible to rename, copy, move, download, edit, preview, archive, unarchive and delete any file or folder you choose with simply a click of the mouse. If you click a directory, you should also create a completely new folder or file in it.

The right–click option is also available at the time you choose different files or folders at the same time.

On account of the integrated archive/unarchive option, the File Manager lets you work with large files and not have to use FTP. You’ll be able to shrink a directory to a small size by clicking on the Compress button or gain access to the contents of an archived folder using the Extract button. Whenever compressing a folder as well as a group of files, you can also decide on the archive extension (.ZIP, .RAR or .TAR.GZ) in addition to the title of the archive file.

From your File Manager it’s possible to manage your files directly on the net when using the in–built instruments. The text editor displays the files with a plain text formatting, the code editor features syntax accentuating for your personal .PHP or .JS files, and then the WYSIWYG editor enables you to see your modifications as they appear live. Also, all changes that you make and save can be displayed automatically online, meaning you can examine them in your own browser and return to create more edits, if not satisfied.

It is not necessary to download any files whatsoever, to edit them with your machine and to re–upload them back to your website hosting account. Each of the editors are accessible through the buttons near the top of the file table or at the right–click contextual menus.

If you are managing a bunch of sites at the same time, it is highly recommendable for you to have every little thing sorted out. With other File Managers, updating several sites in the same web hosting account is extremely challenging. With our File Manager, you will find that it’s in fact rather easy. Every single site does have its own folder, which you can quickly acknowledge, and all of the files related to the given site are located there.

And then to make everything so much easier, we have a drop–down menu where you can quickly pick on which web host you intend to work inside the File Manager. Our clever system will take you there in seconds.

Managing all of your files is user–friendly and straightforward using the Don Webhosting Online Control Panel. You are going to experience a file management setting which is not far from your desktop machine’s file explorer. It is possible to drag and drop files and control them with a right click of the mouse. When using the integrated preview option, you can see photos the same as they will be on the Internet, and through the built–in file editors you can create transformations to your files instantly.

If you would like assistance controlling your files, you’ll be able to make reference to the enormous selection of posts and how–to video lessons, that you can access with merely a mouse–click.

With the Don Webhosting File Manager, it’s possible to pick different files or directories exactly like you do on your desktop computer or notebook. Simply press the Control (Command for Mac) key and then click the wanted files/folders. In case you would like, to pick a large amount of files/folders simultaneously, click a single file/folder, hold down the Shift key and click on any other file or folder.

Having once selected all of the files that you’ll require, you can drag them to a distinct location, or take advantage of the right–click context menu to check out an index of the available activities.

There’s a single typical technique to guard a folder using a pass word – by creating an .htaccess file. If, however, you are not technically skilled sufficiently, you’ll have difficulties doing it on your own. For making things simple, we have integrated a user–friendly password protection interface to the File Manager readily available in the Online Control Panel.

To make use of this option, just right–click on a directory and select Password Protection. Then set the login name and the security password that you’ll want to work with and click on the button. That’s all. The selected directory is going to be undetectable by the general pubic and will also be accessible to authorized users.
