The Cpanel File Manager allows you to manage your website files quickly and easily. Without needing an FTP client, you can upload, edit, and delete files directly from your browser.

1. Log in to Cpanel

Go to https://yourdomain.com:2083 and log in. Click on “File Manager” under the Files section.

2. Home Directory and public_html

The public_html folder is your website’s root directory. All public website files (like index.html or wp-config.php) are stored here.

3. Upload Files

Click “Upload” in the top menu to add files from your computer. Be mindful of upload size limits (usually 256 MB or higher).

4. Edit Files and Permissions

Right-click on a file and choose “Edit” or “Code Edit” to make changes. Use “Permissions” to modify file access levels (for example, 644 or 755).

5. Compress and Backup

Select multiple files and click “Compress” to zip them or “Extract” to unpack archives. This is useful for backups and website transfers.

Note: Always back up before editing any core files. An incorrect change can break your website’s functionality.
