The iLink Hosting File Manager

Uploading data files with an FTP client is an out–of–date and really unsafe way for relocating data files from your laptop or computer to a server. This is why, we have integrated drag–and–drop file publish support in the File Manager. Just drag the files that you need to add from your computer into your browser and they will begin to upload in your website hosting profile through a risk–free SSL communication.

You don’t need to set up any additional software pack, browser extensions or programs. The drag–and–drop functionality operates equally well on Windows, Mac and Linux.

The vast majority of File Managers include all the activities that you can perform on a file or directory on the top of the page. We feel that the latter is not properly arranged. With the File Manager, you can get all file managing options whenever you right–click a file or directory. This option is likewise applicable for different files/folders.

You’ll be able to rename, copy, move, download, edit, preview, archive, unarchive and delete every file or directory you decide with only a click of the mouse.

The File Manager is designed with an in–built archive/unarchive option that will help you add big archives and extract them in your website hosting account blazingly fast. Any time compressing a file or folder, you are able to select the name of the archive that’ll be created plus its extension – .ZIP, .RAR or .TAR.GZ. Additionally, you’ll be able to archive already present folders or files with a mouse–click.

The archive/unarchive alternative available at the File Manager will let you make use of huge files right from your Web Control Panel. No need to start using any third party software for instance an FTP client as a way to upload a huge file in your cloud hosting account or to download any kind of archive in your desktop.

We’ve incorporated a group of file editors in the Web Control Panel to help you produce quick and simple modifications for your files without needing to implement any third–party apps. Within the File Manager you will find a WYSIWYG editor that will help you check all the changes that you come up with live, a code editor which includes syntax displaying for one’s .JS or .PHP files, along with a plain text editor for more expert customers. All the changes which you make and keep are going to be reflected automatically on the web.

You have access to the file editors using the buttons at the top of the file table as well as by right–clicking any file/folder.

When you’re in charge of a lot of sites at the same time, it’s highly recommendable for you to have every little thing organized. With many other File Managers, revising a variety of web sites inside the same web hosting account could be very challenging. With the File Manager, you will see that it’s in fact rather easy. Every website features its own directory, which you can at once identify, including all of the files pertaining to the given website can be found there.

And then to make things so much easier, we have a drop–down navigation from which it’s easy to select on exactly which host you want to work in the File Manager. Our smart system will lead you there within seconds.

The iLink Hosting File Manager was made in such a way to make you feel just like using the file explorer on your computer. It functions a possibility to drag your files and then to drop them inside a preferred location and shows all the accessible modification opportunities after clicking the right mouse button. Additionally, the tool contains a built in file preview solution as well as other file editors allowing you to change your files in real time from your Web Control Panel.

Additionally, we have included a group of file management posts and how–to training videos to help you fairly quickly learn how to work with the tool.

Our File Manager will help you save a plenty of time when you use multiple files. You are able to select multiple files at the same time and apply a pre–selected action to them exactly like you do in your desktop machine or laptop. To pick random files at the same time, just hold down the Control key, and to choose a collection of nearby files, press the Shift key. It’s that easy.

When you have chosen the files, you are able to automatically transfer them to an additional location thanks to the drag–and–drop option. By making use of the right–click context menu as well as the buttons above the file table, you can actually apply a variety of other activities – it is easy to copy, rename, delete, download and edit your files, alter file permissions, and so on.

There is one prevalent approach to secure a folder with a security password – by making an .htaccess file. If, however, you aren’t technologically experienced sufficiently, you will have difficulty doing it all by yourself. To generate things easy for you, we have added an easy–to–work–with password protection interface to the File Manager readily available in the Web Control Panel.

To use this option, just right–click on a folder and pick Password Protection. Then add the login name as well as the security password that you would like to make use of and press the button. That’s it. Now the particular directory is undetectable by the general pubic and will also be accessible only to authorized account owners.
