The Raptor Hosting File Manager

Moving files between your desktop computer and any of your sites is right now easy and quick, because of the drag–and–drop option available from the File Manager. You can pull data files from your notebook or computer and drop them in your Control Panel over a secure SSL communication. That’s it. It requires a few seconds to upload a file and a little bit longer for the larger data files and directories.

You don’t have to mount any third party software package or browser extensions. The drag & drop functionality built into the File Manager performs equally efficiently on all main OS’s.

Because of the right–click menus that we have included in the File Manager, it’s possible to change all of your files in a time and effort saving manner. Just click on a file or directory and with the panel which will show up, choose the actions that you like. It is possible to rename, copy, move, download, edit, preview, archive, unarchive and delete just about any chosen file. If you click on a folder, you will also view the solution to create a completely new sub–folder or file within it.

If you choose multiple files or folders, it is easy to use the same procedures for all of them simultaneously.

Due to the built–in archive/unarchive solution, the File Manager makes it possible for you to manage huge files never having to use FTP. It’s possible to reduce the size of a folder to a small size by clicking on the Compress button or gain access to the contents of an archived directory by using the Extract button. When compressing a folder or a bunch of files, you will be able to decide on the archive extension (.ZIP, .RAR or .TAR.GZ) and the title of the archive file.

We’ve integrated a couple of file editors in the Control Panel to assist you to produce quick and easy adjustments in your files without the need to use third–party software packs. In the File Manager you can find a WYSIWYG editor that can help you keep an eye on any changes that you generate in real time, a code editor which includes syntax emphasizing for one’s .JS or .PHP files, and also a plain text editor for more experienced customers. Any changes which you generate and save can be demonstrated right away on the web.

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

When you’re in charge of a lot of sites simultaneously, it’s essential that you have everything sorted. With many other File Managers, revising several websites inside the same website hosting account is quite tricky. Using our File Manager, you’ll see that it’s actually quite easy. Every web site features its own directory, that you’ll at once identify, including all of the files related to the specified website can be found there.

And to make things even easier, you will find a drop–down navigation where you can quickly pick on exactly which host you wish to work within the File Manager. Our clever system will lead you there within seconds.

If you wish to password–protect a folder in your website, you need to create an .htaccess file by hand.
