The EB Cloud Technologies File Manager

Submitting files with an FTP client is an out–of–date and quite an unsafe way of transferring files from your computer to a web hosting server. By reason of this, we have integrated drag & drop data file upload support in the File Manager. Just pull the files that you need to upload from your computer into your browser and they’ll begin to publish in your web hosting account through a risk–free SSL connection.

You don’t have to set up any additional software pack, web browser add–ons or programs. The drag & drop function operates just as well on Windows, Mac and Linux.

Due to the right–click menus we’ve added to the File Manager, it’s possible to change your files easier than ever. Simply click on a file or directory and through the panel which will pop up, select the activity that you’d like. You can rename, copy, move, download, edit, preview, archive, unarchive and delete virtually any picked file. If you click on a folder, you will also view the solution to make a different sub–folder or file inside.

When you select different files or folders, it is easy to apply identical measures to all of them concurrently.

The File Manager comes with an in–built archive/unarchive solution that can assist you add massive archives and then extract them inside your cloud hosting account in the blink of an eye. The moment compressing a file or directory, it is possible to decide on the title for the archive which is to be created plus its extension – .ZIP, .RAR or .TAR.GZ. Additionally, it is possible to archive existing files or folders with simply a mouse–click.

The archive/unarchive alternative you can find at the File Manager lets you use huge files straight from your Web Site Control Panel. You don’t have to start using any third party software for instance an FTP client so as to upload a substantial file to your website hosting account or to download any kind of archive to your desktop.

We have bundled a number of file editors within the Web Site Control Panel to help you produce easy and quick adjustments in your files without having to employ third party applications. In the File Manager there is also a WYSIWYG editor that will help keep an eye on all the recent changes you generate live, a code editor that boasts syntax accentuating for your .JS or .PHP files, as well as a plain text editor for more expert customers. Any changes that you come up with and keep can be shown automatically on the web.

You can access the file editors when using the buttons at the top of the file table and / or by right–clicking any file/folder.

If you are handling a lot of websites simultaneously, it’s important to have every little thing structured. With many other File Managers, revising a large number of web sites in the exact same account is quite difficult. Using our File Manager, you’ll find that it is in fact rather easy. Every single website features its own folder, which you can immediately recognize, and all of the files related to the specified website are placed there.

And then to make things so much easier, we have a drop–down menu from which you can quickly select on which web host you wish to work in the File Manager. Our intelligent system will lead you there within seconds.

The majority of web File Managers are slow and tricky to employ. They offer constrained possibilities and typically are not really user–friendly. We strive to improve that through the EB Cloud Technologies File Manager. It is intended to be intuitive and also to seem like a product you are already well aware of – the File Manager on your PC.

All of its capabilities, the drag & drop file upload options, the right–click context menus, the internal file editors, etc. exist for 1 reason – to make managing your website(s) less of a challenge.

Using the EB Cloud Technologies File Manager, you can easily pick many files or folders precisely like you do on your desktop machine or notebook. Just hold down the Control (Command for Apple’s Mac OS) key and click on the desired files/folders. Or, to pick a large amount of files/folders simultaneously, click on a single file/folder, press the Shift key and then click any file or folder.

Having once selected the whole set of files that you need, it is possible to drag them to a different directory, or use the right–click contextual menu to see a summary of the accessible actions.

There’s a single popular technique to shield a folder using a password – by making an .htaccess file. If, however, you aren’t technologically experienced enough, you’ll have trouble performing it on your own. To make things simple, we’ve added an easy–to–navigate password protection interface to the File Manager accessible inside the Web Site Control Panel.

To use this option, just right–click on a folder and choose Password Protection. After that choose the user name plus the pass word that you like to apply and then click on the button. That’s all. The chosen folder is hidden from the public eye and will also be accessible just to previously approved users.
