The file manager

Browse, edit, upload, download, zip and unzip files in the browser.

The Files page is a file manager in your browser. It works on the same files as SFTP, and everything happens as your own account.

Find your way

  • Click a folder to open it. .. (up one folder) goes back, and the path at the top takes you to any folder above.
  • Your website's files are in example.dk/public.

What you can do

Action How
Open or edit a file Click the file name. Text files up to 2 MB open in an editor; choose Save when done.
Upload Choose Upload and pick a file of up to 25 MB. Upload a ZIP and unpack it for many files.
Download Choose Download next to the file.
New file or folder Under New, choose File or Folder, type the name and choose Create.
Rename Choose Rename next to the file or folder and type the new name.
Delete Tick the files and folders and choose Delete under Selected. Deleted files can only be brought back from a backup.
Make a ZIP Tick files and folders, type a name for the ZIP file under Selected and choose Make ZIP.
Unpack a ZIP Choose Unpack next to the ZIP file. Files with the same names are overwritten.

Bigger jobs

For many files or files larger than 25 MB, use SFTP. A good way to move a whole website is to make one ZIP file, upload it with SFTP and unpack it in the file manager.
