The katarisoft File Manager

Adding data files with an FTP client is an obsolete and really unsafe method for transporting files from your personal computer to a hosting server. By reason of this, we have included drag–and–drop data file publish support in the File Manager. Simply drag the files that you need to publish from your desktop computer into your browser and they’ll begin to upload in your web hosting account through a risk–free SSL connection.

You don’t need to install any extra software, web browser extensions or applications. The drag–and–drop functionality works equally well on Windows, Mac or Linux.

A large number of File Managers list all the activities that one can execute with a file or folder at the top of the webpage. We believe that the latter is just not user–friendly enough. With the File Manager, you can get all file control choices when you right–click a file or folder. This approach is also valid for different files/folders.

You can rename, copy, move, download, edit, preview, archive, unarchive and delete just about any file or folder you decide on with just a click of the mouse.

Due to the internal archive/unarchive option, the File Manager enables you to work with huge files and not having to use FTP. It is easy to shrink a directory to a small size by simply clicking on the Compress button or get the items in an archived directory by using the Extract button. Whenever compressing a folder as well as a bunch of files, it will be easy to select the archive extension (.ZIP, .RAR or .TAR.GZ) in addition to the title of the archive file.

Our File Manager makes it possible for you to modify your files directly on the hosting server never having to download, change after which re–upload them. You can actually change your files directly on the Internet, by making use of our inbuilt editors. Our company offers a code editor having syntax highlighting for your .PHP or .JS files, a WYSIWYG editor for HTML files, and also a standard text editor for the more expert customers.

You can access every single file editor when using the right–click context menus. All corrections made to the files are shown at once online – you’re able to directly preview them in the web browser.

Each of the files inside your web hosting account are organized into folders. Every web host has its own primary folder, that follows the file structure you have created. In this way, it is easy to handle all of your hosts from a single location without any risk of becoming lost or perplexed.

By default, you will see all of the hosts conveniently indexed in a table and when you click once over a specific host, you will see each of the sub–folders and files pertaining to it. By clicking on twice, you are going to go to a webpage that is focused entirely on that host alone. An additional way to load the folder related to a particular host and to work with it solely, is using the drop–down menu at the top of the main File Manager file table.

The katarisoft File Manager has been created in such a manner as to make you feel similarly to making use of the file explorer on your laptop. It boasts a possibility to drag your files and to drop them with a preferred area and displays all of the obtainable modification options on clicking the right mouse button. In addition, the tool contains an incorporated file preview solution as well as other file editors so that you can modify your files instantly directly from your Web Hosting Control Panel.

Furthermore, we have enclosed a collection of file management articles and how–to video lessons to enable you rather quickly find out how to make use of the tool.

Using the katarisoft File Manager, you’re able to pick out many different files or directories precisely like you do on your notebook or computer. Just hold down the Control (Command for Mac) key and then click the desired files/folders. In case you would like, to pick a large amount of files/folders at once, click on one file/folder, press the Shift key and click on any file or folder.

Once you’ve picked each of the files that you want to, it’s possible to drag them to a specified location, or use the right–click contextual menu to see a listing of the accessible activities.

There is a single prevalent approach to guard a directory using a password – by creating an .htaccess file. If, however, you aren’t technologically skilled sufficiently, you will have trouble performing it all on your own. To generate things straightforward, we have included an uncomplicated password protection interface to the File Manager available within the Web Hosting Control Panel.

To use the option, just right–click on a folder and choose Password Protection. After that decide on the user name as well as the security password that you want to use and click on the button. That’s it. The selected directory will be hidden from the standard users and will be accessible to authorized account owners.
