Applied as FTP (File Transfer Protocol) software substitutes, online file management tools have always been sluggish and poor in capabilities. Yet, with the File Manager featured in the MekoHost Web Site Control Panel, you won’t only have a quick, responsive and user–friendly file administration interface, but also a software instrument that will make an external FTP application unnecessary. Consider some of the capabilities that we have included in our File Manager.
Drag–and–drop file uploads
Upload files without any difficulty
Transferring data files between your PC and any of your web sites is right now quick and simple, because of the drag & drop functionality offered by the File Manager. You could drag data files from your laptop or computer and drop them in the Web Site Control Panel via secure SSL connection. That’s all. It takes a few seconds to add a data file and a little bit longer for the bigger data files and folders.
You don’t need to install any third party application or Internet browser extensions. The drag–and–drop feature included in the File Manager performs equally well on all major OS’s.
Right–click context menus
All of the file administration choices at your fingertips
We have aimed to make your File Manager as intuitive as it can be, so it’s possible to generate modifications to your files. Apart from the standard control bar towards the top of the page, we have now in addition added right–click context menus with all the current simple file managing options. Simply click on a file or directory and choose the actions that you like from the collection which will turn up.
You’ll be able to rename, copy, move, download, edit, preview, archive, unarchive and delete any file or folder you decide on with merely a click of the mouse. Should you click a directory, you should also generate a different folder or file within it.
The right–click option is conveniently obtainable whenever you choose different files or folders at the same time.
Archive/Unarchive files
Archive or extract archive files within seconds
Not like a large number of file management interfaces as well as FTP clients, the MekoHost Web Site Control Panel boasts an option to archive/unarchive files faster. It is really well–designed. To have a directory shrunk to a compact size, all you need to do is select it and then click the Compress button. To open up the items in an archived folder inside your cloud hosting account, select it and then click the Extract button. The File Manager uses various file extensions, for example .ZIP, .RAR and .TAR.GZ.
Integrated file editors
Absolutely no third party software packs are needed
We’ve integrated a number of file editors in the Web Site Control Panel to help you produce easy and quick adjusts to your files without needing to employ any third party apps. Within the File Manager you can find a WYSIWYG editor that can help you keep an eye on all the recent changes which you come up with immediately, a code editor that features syntax highlighting for your .JS or .PHP files, as well as a plain text editor for more expert customers. All the changes which you generate and keep are going to be demonstrated automatically on the web.
You have access to the file editors making use of the buttons at the top of the file table and / or by right–clicking a particular file/folder.
A logical folder structure
All your files sorted in a simple way
Each of the files within your hosting account are separated into directories. Every host features its own primary folder, that employs the file hierarchy that you have pre–set. By doing this, it is very easy to deal with all of your current hosts in one location without the probability of getting lost or perplexed.
By default, you will notice all the hosts conveniently indexed in a table and if you click once on a given host, you’ll see the whole set of sub–folders and files related to it. By clicking two times, you are going to visit a web page that’s focused entirely on that host alone. An additional way to open the folder pertaining to a particular host and to use it exclusively, is by using the drop–down menu at the top of the primary File Manager file table.
A user–friendly interface
A File Manager intended for people
The majority of online File Managers are slow–moving and tricky to make use of. They give you limited possibilities and certainly are not really straightforward. We strive to transform that by means of the MekoHost File Manager. It’s developed to be intuitive and to resemble a product you already know – the File Manager on your personal computer.
All of its capabilities, the drag & drop file upload solutions, the right–click context menus, the inbuilt file editors, etcetera exist for 1 purpose – to create controlling your web site(s) a lot easier.
Work with multiple files
Modify a number of files simultaneously
With the MekoHost File Manager, you’re able to pick multiple files or folders precisely like you do on your desktop computer or notebook. Simply keep pressed the Control (Command for Mac) key and click on the wanted files/folders. In case you’d like, to select a lot of files/folders simultaneously, click one file/folder, hold down the Shift key and click on any file or folder.
Once you’ve chosen all the files that you need, it is possible to drag them into a distinct directory, or use the right–click contextual menu to check out a listing of the available features.
Quick & simple password protection options
The ultimate way to guard your data
If you’d like to password–secure a directory within your website, you need to set up an .htaccess file by hand. However, this is time–consuming and complex if you are not well–trained in website hosting. Using our File Manager, you can make a password–secured folder and conceal all its items from the public eye with several clicks.
What you need to undertake is right–click a folder, pick out Password Protection and click the Add option. After that just define a username as well as a password. No additional configuration is necessary and there’s no reason to address an .htaccess file. Our system will handle everything for you.
