The HostMe.Ninja File Manager

Publishing data files with an FTP client is an outdated and really unsafe way for shifting files from your desktop machine or laptop to a hosting server. Because of this, we have included drag & drop data file upload support in the File Manager. Simply drag the data files that you want to upload from your PC into your web browser and they will start to upload in your website hosting account over a safe SSL communication.

There is no need to deploy any additional software pack, browser add–ons or web apps. The drag–and–drop feature works just as well on Windows, Linux or Mac.

On account of the right–click menus we have included in the File Manager, you will be able to manage all of your files in a time and effort saving manner. Simply click on a file or folder and with the panel that will pop up, find the activity you want. You can rename, copy, move, download, edit, preview, archive, unarchive and delete just about any selected file. If you click on a folder, additionally, you will see the option to generate a new sub–folder or file inside.

Whenever you select numerous files or directories, it’s possible to apply the exact same actions to all of them simultaneously.

Not like the majority of file management user interfaces as well as FTP clients, the HostMe.Ninja Web Hosting Control Panel has a way to archive/unarchive files much faster. It is intuitive. To get a directory reduced into a compact size, just pick it and click on the Compress button. To open up the belongings of an archived folder in your web hosting account, select it and click on the Extract button. The File Manager supports a number of file extensions, like .ZIP, .RAR and .TAR.GZ.

HostMe.Ninja’s File Manager permits you to manage your files on the web hosting server without the need to download, change and after that re–upload them. It is possible to update your files instantly on the Internet, making use of our built–in editors. We offer a code editor using syntax displaying for your .PHP or .JS files, a WYSIWYG editor for HTML files, and a standard text editor for more expert customers.

You can access each file editor using the right–click context menus. All corrections made to the files are reflected at once online – you can easily directly examine them in your Internet browser.

Each of the files in your hosting account are separated into directories. Every web host does have its primary directory, that employs the file hierarchy that you have pre–set. This way, it is really easy to take care of all of your current hosts from one location without any chance of becoming lost or perplexed.

By default, you will notice all the hosts indexed in a table and when you mouse–click once over a specific host, you’ll see all of the sub–folders and files related to it. By clicking twice, you are going to visit a page which is dedicated to that host exclusively. A further way to open the folder associated with a given host and then to work with it exclusively, is to try using the drop–down menu near the top of the main File Manager file table.

Most online File Managers are slow–moving and complex to employ. They feature constrained functions and typically are not really simple to use. We aim to change that by means of the HostMe.Ninja File Manager. It’s intended to be easy–to–use and to appear to be a product you know – the File Manager on your personal computer system.

All of its attributes, the drag & drop file upload options, the right–click contextual menus, the internal file editors, etcetera exist for a single reason – to make controlling your site(s) easier.

It’s easy to work with a plethora of files at the same time making use of the multi–selection ability of the HostMe.Ninja File Manager. All you should do is simply press the Control key and then click on the files or directories that you want to choose. Should you wish to select a collection of files/folders in a row immediately, pick the first file/folder, hold down the Shift key and then choose the very last file or folder inside the selection.

For those who have selected the required files/folders, you can drag them to an alternative spot, or apply different activities to them making use of right–click contextual menu as well as the buttons near the top of the file table.

There’s one popular approach to safeguard a folder using a pass word – by making an .htaccess file. If, however, you aren’t technologically skilled sufficiently, you will have trouble carrying it out on your own. For making things easy, we’ve integrated an intuitive password protection interface to the File Manager accessible within the Web Hosting Control Panel.

To employ this option, just right–click on a directory and select Password Protection. Then decide on the user name as well as the pass word that you’ll want to apply and press the button. That’s it.
