The File Manager allows you to upload, edit, and organize your website files directly from your browser without needing an FTP client.
Accessing Files
- Log in to your staXscale dashboard.
- Click on File Manager.
- Navigate to your Document Root (usually
/httpdocsor/public_html) to see your live site files.
Common Actions
- Upload: Click Upload to add files from your computer. You can upload
.ziparchives and use the Extract button to unzip them directly on the server. - Edit: Click any text-based file (like
.php,.html, or.css) and select Edit to make quick code changes in the browser. - Permissions: If you need to change who can read/write a file (e.g.,
755or644), select the file, click Permissions, and adjust the checkboxes. If you are unsure which permissions to use, the default settings are usually safest.
