Using the File Manager in Enhance

The Enhance file manager lets you browse, upload, edit, rename, and delete files directly in your browser - no FTP client needed for quick tasks.

Opening the File Manager

1. Log in to web.teklanhosting.co.uk.
2. Click your website, then go to Files → File Manager.

The file manager opens in a new tab showing your account's directory structure.

Navigating Your Files

Your website's public files live in public_html. This is the root directory that visitors see when they load your domain. Files outside public_html are not accessible via a browser.

Click folders to expand them, click files to select them, and double-click a file to open it in the built-in editor.

Uploading Files

1. Navigate to the target directory (e.g. public_html).
2. Click Upload and select the files from your computer.

For large numbers of files or folders, use FTP/SFTP instead - the file manager is better for individual files or small sets. See the FTP guide.

Editing Files

Double-click any text file (.php, .html, .css, .js, .env, .htaccess) to open it in the built-in editor. Make your changes and click Save.

Creating Folders and Files

• To create a new folder: click New Folder, enter a name, and confirm.
• To create a new file: click New File, enter a filename with its extension (e.g. test.php), and it will open in the editor.

Renaming and Deleting

Right-click any file or folder to get options including rename, delete, move, copy, and change permissions. You can also select multiple items using checkboxes for bulk operations.

Extracting Archives

If you upload a .zip file, right-click it and choose Extract. Enhance unzips the archive into the current directory. This is a fast way to deploy a large set of files - zip them locally, upload one file, and extract on the server.

Compressing Files

Select multiple files or a folder, right-click, and choose Compress to create a .zip archive. You can then download the archive as a quick backup.
