The Foxetech Hosting File Manager

Posting files with an FTP client is an out–of–date and really insecure way for transferring data files from your desktop machine or laptop to a web server. That’s why, we have included drag’n’drop data file upload support in the File Manager. Just drag the data files that you need to upload from your computer into your web browser and they will start to publish in your website hosting profile over a risk–free SSL connection.

There is no need to set up any extra computer software, browser plug–ins or web apps. The drag & drop capability performs equally well on Windows, Mac and Linux.

Most File Managers specify all of the activities that you can execute with a file or directory at the top of the web page. We think that the latter is just not intuitive enough. With the File Manager, you can access all file managing options at the time you right–click a file or folder. This option is likewise applicable for different files/folders.

You can actually rename, copy, move, download, edit, preview, archive, unarchive and delete just about any file or folder you decide on with only a click of the mouse.

Due to the integrated archive/unarchive solution, the File Manager allows you to handle big files with no need to use FTP. You can pack a directory to a lightweight size by clicking on the Compress button or access the contents of an archived folder using the Extract button. When compressing a directory or a list of files, you will be able to select the archive extension (.ZIP, .RAR or .TAR.GZ) and then the title of one’s archive file.

Foxetech Hosting’s File Manager helps you to revise your files on the hosting server and never have to download, adjust and re–upload them. You’ll be able to revise your files instantly on the net, by using Foxetech Hosting’s built–in editors. We provide a code editor with syntax highlighting for your .PHP or .JS files, a WYSIWYG editor for HTML files, in addition to a regular text editor for more experienced customers.

You can access every single file editor using the right–click contextual menus. All of the corrections made to the files will be reflected at once online – it is easy to directly preview them within the browser.

All the files within your hosting account are organized into directories. Each and every host does have its primary folder, which employs the file structure that you have pre–set. By doing this, it is simple to maintain all of your current hosts from one location without risk of becoming lost or confused.

By default, you will see all the hosts listed in a table and if you mouse–click once over a given host, you will observe the whole set of sub–folders and files associated with it. By clicking two times, you will visit a page that is focused entirely on that host alone. An additional way to open the folder pertaining to a specific host and also to use it solely, is to try using the drop–down menu towards the top of the main File Manager file table.

Dealing with your files is intuitive and straightforward with the Foxetech Hosting Online Control Panel. You are going to have a file administration atmosphere which is very close to your desktop computer’s file explorer. You’ll be able to drag and drop files and take care of all of them with a right mouse–click. When using the included preview option, you can see pics just like they will be on the Internet, and via the integrated file editors you can easily make adjusts for your files live.

If you need assistance taking care of your files, you can take a look at the big selection of articles and how–to instructional videos, which you can find with simply a mouse–click.

It’s easy to manage a plethora of files simultaneously using the multi–selection capacity of the Foxetech Hosting File Manager. All you should do is just hold down the Control key and then click on the files or directories that you want to choose. If you wish to pick a variety of files/folders in a row at once, pick the first file/folder, click the Shift key and afterwards click on the final file or folder inside the collection.

If you have chosen the required files/folders, you can drag them to a distinct place, or employ diverse actions to them when using the right–click context menu as well as the buttons near the top of the file table.

If you want to password–protect a folder in your website, you need to set up an .htaccess file by hand. Expectedly, this could be time–demanding and complicated if you’re not a professional in hosting. When using the File Manager, you can make a password–secured folder and hide all its items from any users with simply a couple of clicks.
