Description

The File Manager addon adds a complete file browser to the Download Manager within the WordPress admin panel, allowing you to create folders, rename, move, copy, and delete files from the server without using FTP or cPanel. Built for administrators who manage extensive download libraries, it centralizes the organization of the uploads directory and the packages linked to items in the Download Manager in a single screen.

Key Features

  • Admin-integrated manager: opens a dedicated screen to browse the server directories directly in the WordPress panel.
  • Full file operations: create, rename, move, copy, delete, and organize folders and files without an FTP client.
  • Direct upload: upload new files to any folder in the monitored directory.
  • Link with the Download Manager: associates server files with the download packages registered in the base plugin.
  • Permission control: operates within WordPress rules, restricting access to authorized users.

File Manager Benefits

  • Centralized workflow: avoids switching between the panel, FTP, and the hosting manager to upload and organize packages.
  • Faster maintenance: renames, replacements, and deletions happen in just a few clicks, even in libraries with many files.
  • Less technical dependency: lets editors and managers adjust files without needing SSH or FTP access.
  • Scalable organization: makes it easy to structure folders by category, client, or type of distributed material.

Who Is It For?

  • Sites that distribute a large volume of downloads (software, e-books, documents, media) and need to organize files frequently.
  • Administrators and editors who don’t have direct FTP access, but need to keep packages up to date.
  • Agencies and teams that manage multiple clients or libraries within the same WordPress.

Combined with the Download Manager, the File Manager addon turns WordPress into a self-sufficient environment for curating and distributing files, reducing reliance on external tools. It’s recommended for operations that require frequent package maintenance and want to keep the entire organization routine within the admin panel, without giving up granular control over folders and permissions.
