🔑 HOW IT WORKS

Filester plugin helps you easily manage WordPress files so that you don’t have to access directories via FTP or cPanel.

This plugin creates a new menu File Manager in your WordPress dashboard. From then on, you can view all server files, configuration, and media files on your current WordPress website.

Je kunt bestanden/mappen bewerken, kopiëren, uploaden/downloaden naar je server vanuit de sectie File Manager. Deze toolbar is vergelijkbaar met de instellingen in een FTP client. Het staat je toe om bestanden en mappen als voorbeeld te bekijken, bewerken, uploaden, downloaden, dupliceren en verwijderen.

With Filester, it’s easy to modify the auto-update mechanism with each new version of WordPress. You can quickly search for specific text or code within your WordPress files and replace it efficiently.

With built-in code editors, you can edit code files with syntax highlighting and code completion features for themes, plugins, and custom code snippets. It takes one click to download a plugin’s ZIP file to your local storage. It helps track changes made to files and revert to previous versions if needed.

Alle webmasters kunnen ook WordPress mediabibliotheek downloaden met behulp van Filester downloadopties.

🎏 COMPATIBILITEIT

Filester works seamlessly with all major WordPress themes, page builders, and website builders.
