The web-based FTP client lets you manage your Minecraft server files with ease from your panel. To access your Minecraft server files using the web-based client, go to FTP File Access and log in using your panel password. Once authenticated, you will be taken to the home directory on your server.
Navigating Your Server Files
Navigating through your server's files is similar to how you would do it on your personal desktop. The directory structure is in the middle. We can navigate to, select and modify our files here. System32 To view the contents of the folder, click on it. To edit a file, we click Edit and to download, we click the actual name of the file.
There are options for managing the specific files you've selected. Once you have the selected items selected, you can issue certain actions to them like:
Move Select files to move them into another directory on your server. Select Delete - Permanently remove selected files.
Copy - Create a copy of selected files.
Rename - Rename select files
Download Select files can be downloaded to an archive format.
Zip - Archive files and save them to the server.
Unzip and extract the contents of an archive to the directory you're currently in.
Just another site
Edit - Edit the file with the built-in text editor.
Making New Folder and Files
You can create new folders or files directly from your control panel by selecting the New Dir, New File, or Upload option located on the left side menu.
New Dir - Create a new directory (or folder)
New File - Create a fresh plain text file.
Upload - Upload a collection of files or an archive.
If you're using the Upload option to upload files to your server, you need to keep in mind that you can only upload single files and not entire folders. Just another site Uploading an entire folder will require you to first archive it, and then unzip it.
Limitations
While the web based FTP client is easy and fast for light server edits and uploads but it does have limitations. When you commit changes to your server files or uploading new files you are using the panels web page as an intermediary for the file exchange. What this means is that you are restricted in the amount of much you can upload in a single session. This limit is set at 50mb. Any upload or commit of files larger than this will need to be performed using an alternative FTP client, such as Filezilla. Third-party clients like Filezilla don't have any limitations on file size, since they connect directly to your server's files, not the web-based FTP client.
