The Sylvan Servers File Manager
Online file management performed the right way
Used as FTP software substitutes, web–based file management tools have always been slow and poor in features. Still, with the File Manager included in the Sylvan Servers Website Control Panel, you won’t just have a speedy, responsive and easy–to–use file management client, but also a software instrument that will make a third–party FTP software unneeded. Have a look at some of the features that we have built–into our File Manager.
Drag–and–drop file uploads
Add files without any difficulty
Moving data files between your computer and any of your web sites is right now quick and easy, thanks to the drag & drop option available from the File Manager. You can drag data files from your desktop machine or laptop and drop them in the Website Control Panel over a secure SSL communication. That’s it. It requires seconds to add a data file and slightly longer for any bigger data files and folders.
There’s no need to set up any third–party software package or browser addons. The drag’n’drop capability contained in the File Manager performs just as well on all leading operating systems.
Right–click context menus
Control your files with just a click
The majority of File Managers list all the actions which you can perform within a file or directory on the top of the web page. We believe that the latter is just not user–friendly enough. Thanks to the File Manager, you can access all file management options at the time you right–click a file or directory. This option is likewise applicable for a number of files/folders.
You’ll be able to rename, copy, move, download, edit, preview, archive, unarchive and delete any file or directory you decide on with only a click of the mouse.
Archive/Unarchive files
Maintain archives with just a click of the mouse
The File Manager is designed with an in–built archive/unarchive solution that will assist you submit massive archives and then extract them within your website hosting account blazingly fast. Any time compressing a file or folder, you’ll be able to decide on the title of the archive which will be created and its extension – .ZIP, .RAR or .TAR.GZ. Furthermore, it’s possible to compress already present files or folders with just a mouse–click.
The archive/unarchive alternative available from the File Manager enables you to use substantial files straight from your Website Control Panel. No reason to start using any third–party software just like an FTP client in order to upload a large file onto your hosting account or to download any kind of archive in your desktop.
Online file editors
The best method to change your files
Our File Manager allows you to change your files on the web server without the need to download, change and subsequently re–upload them. You can actually customize your files instantly on the Internet, working with Sylvan Servers’s in–built editors. Our company offers a code editor provided with syntax displaying for your .JS or .PHP files, a WYSIWYG editor for HTML files, in addition to a standard text editor for the more competent users.
You have access to every file editor with the right–click context menus. All changes made to the files will be shown at once online – you are able to directly preview them inside the browser.
