WebFTP User Guide

Welcome to the integrated WebFTP tool. Manage your files directly in the browser without installing additional software.

To access your files, log in with your FTP credentials (Host, Username, Password). You can specify a port (default 21) and choose SSL/TLS for secure connections.

The Interface:

  • Toolbar: Contains navigation buttons (Home, Up), search, and action buttons (Upload, New Folder).
  • Breadcrumbs: Shows your current path. Click on any folder name to jump there.
  • File List: Displays files and folders with details like size, date, and permissions.

There are two ways to upload content:

  1. Drag & Drop: Simply drag files or entire folders from your computer into the browser window. An overlay will appear to confirm the drop zone.
  2. Upload Button: Click the "Upload" button in the toolbar. You can choose to upload individual files or a whole folder structure.
A progress bar will show the status of your upload.

  • Rename: Click the Info icon next to a file. Enter the new name and save.
  • Move: Select one or multiple files using the checkboxes. Click the "Move selected" button that appears in the toolbar. Navigate to the destination folder and confirm.
  • Delete: Click the icon to delete a single item. For multiple items, use the checkboxes and the "Delete selected" button.
  • Duplicate: Use the icon to create a copy of a file instantly.

Note: Non-empty folders cannot be deleted directly to prevent accidental data loss. Use the Console for recursive deletion if necessary.

Click the Info icon to access advanced features:

  • Text Files: See a preview of the content. Click "Edit" to modify code or text files directly in the browser.
  • Images: View a thumbnail. Click "Edit Image" to rotate, flip, resize, or convert formats (e.g., PNG to WebP). Click the image to view it full-screen.
  • Permissions: Adjust file permissions (CHMOD) using the visual checkboxes (Read/Write/Execute).

Save bandwidth by performing archive operations directly on the server:

  • Zip a Folder: Click the icon next to a folder to create a .zip archive of its contents.
  • Unzip: Open the Info dialog for a .zip file and click "Unzip". The contents will be extracted to a new folder.
  • Download as Zip: Select multiple files/folders and click "Download selected". They will be bundled into a single zip file for download.

For advanced operations, access the FTP Console via the top navigation.

Supported commands include:

  • ls - List directory contents
  • cd <path> - Change directory
  • rm -r <folder> - Recursively delete a folder and all its contents (Use with caution!)
  • chmod <mode> <file> - Change permissions (e.g., chmod 755 index.php)
