The Mid Georgia Hosting File Manager

The File Manager in your Web Site Control Panel features a swift, drag–and–drop function that will allow you to transfer data files between your PC and your web hosting profile without having to apply an FTP (File Transfer Protocol) tool. You can drag files from your computer and drop them in your Web Site Control Panel with a click of the mouse using a secure SSL connection.

The drag–and–drop feature is integrated into the Web Site Control Panel, which means you do not need to set up any third–party computer software to employ it. It will also work on all leading Operating Systems, so all you have to do to apply it is sign in to your File Manager.

We have aimed to make File Manager as intuitive as possible, so you can easily make changes for your files. Besides the normal control bar near the top of the page, we have furthermore put in right–click contextual menus with all the current basic file managing choices. Click on a file or directory and choose the action you’d like to have within the list that will turn up.

It is possible to rename, copy, move, download, edit, preview, archive, unarchive and delete any file or folder you select with a click of the mouse. Should you click a folder, it is possible to establish a different directory or file in it.

The right–click option is conveniently obtainable if you select different files or folders at once.

Due to the built–in archive/unarchive option, the File Manager allows you to handle substantial files and not have to use FTP. It’s possible to reduce the size of a folder into a small size by clicking on the Compress button or get the items in an archived folder by using the Extract button. When compressing a folder as well as a selection of files, it’s possible to select the archive extension (.ZIP, .RAR or .TAR.GZ) in addition to the name of the archive file.

From your File Manager it is easy to manage your files instantly online working with the built–in tools. The text editor reveals the files with a plain text format, the code editor provides syntax highlighting for your .PHP or .JS files, and the WYSIWYG editor makes it possible to see all the changes as they appear live. Any changes which you come up with and save will be reflected at once on the net, so that you can review them in your own web browser and go back to make more changes, if unsatisfied.

It is not necessary to download any files, to change them on your desktop and to re–upload them back into your website hosting account. All of the editors are accessible through the buttons near the top of the file table or through the right–click context menus.

All of the files within your web hosting account are structured into folders. Every single web host features its own main folder, that uses the file structure you have pre–set. This way, it is straightforward to maintain all of your current hosts in one place with no probability of becoming lost or puzzled.

By standard, you’ll see all of the hosts mentioned in a table and if you mouse–click once over a specific host, you’ll see the whole set of sub–folders and files associated with it. By clicking on two times, you will go to a web page that’s centered on that host only. An additional way to load the folder pertaining to a given host and also to work with it exclusively, is to use the drop–down menu at the top of the primary File Manager file table.

The majority of web File Managers are slow and difficult to work with. They offer modest possibilities and generally aren’t really convenient–to–use. We strive to transform that with the Mid Georgia Hosting File Manager. It was meant to be easy–to–use and also to appear to be a product you know – the File Manager on your desktop.

There is a single popular path to safeguard a folder using a password – by generating an .htaccess file.
