File Upload

Proper website functionality directly depends on its files — HTML, PHP, CSS, JS, images, videos and other resources are stored on the server. Their correct upload and management is critically important for your online project.

File management is possible via FTP/FTPS or SFTP, however the integrated File Manager in the control panel is particularly convenient when you want to quickly upload, modify or delete files from the browser without additional software.

Below is a detailed instruction on how to upload files using the control panel's File Manager.

Complete control panel login

After entering the control panel, find and click on File Manager.

After opening File Manager, you will see the folder structure on the left side.

Main website files should be placed in:

1

/public_html

Click on the public_html folder, this is where you need to upload your website files (e.g.: index.php, index.html, WordPress files, etc.).

If public_html is empty, it means nothing has been uploaded to the site yet.

After entering the public_html folder:

1. Click on Upload in the top menu
2. The upload window will open
3. Choose: From Device – to upload file from computer From URL – to download file directly from a specified link

Then you can:

1. Drag and drop the file
2. Or click "click to select" and choose the file manually

After upload completion, the file will automatically appear in the public_html directory.

File Manager provides practically all the main functions of an FTP client:

1. Create new folder (New Folder)
2. Create new file
3. Edit file
4. Move files
5. Copy files
6. Delete files
7. Create archive (Archive / Zip)
8. Extract archive
9. Change permissions (Permissions / CHMOD)
10. Search and more

Security Recommendations

1. Don't change system file permissions unless you're sure what you're doing.
2. Don't leave unnecessary files in the public_html directory.
3. Make a backup before important changes.
4. If working with large files (e.g. >100MB), FTP is recommended.
