Does Astahost Provide . . . - question I couldn't find on the faq

wykked_dreamz
does astahost provide an online html/php/whatever editor. I just want to know if i can edit my webpages online or if i have to upload it each time i decide to change it. i looked on the faq, and searched through the forums, and i even checked the package details. i don't believe i saw it anywhere. thank you for all of your help.

I don't believe you can, though some FTP programs (I use SmartFTP which can) allow you to edit the files directly on the server. If you're using Dreamweaver to make your pages, they have a Site option which says something like "Edit on local folder then upload .. Edit directly on server", so if you choose to edit directly on server you don't need to upload everything.

An alternative way of updating if you don't like uploading is to use a blog system on your website (lots of people use this on just the news/front page). You will still have to upload some stuff, like pictures and files you want to use, make downloadable etc but you can make a layout and then specify header (the scripting before your text comes in), footer (the scripting after you've finished the text) and some systems will also allow an extra one called "Column", I think. Then when you want to update news, you only have to log in to your blog system and make a new entry.

Yes you can! If you select file manager in your cpanel it will take you to the root of your site. Just double click on public_html folder. Once you click on a file it will give you the option to; show file, delete file, edit file, change permissions, rename file, copy file, move file and it has an html editor.

It is important to click on the icons on the left of the listings to get the action you want.

Or use SSH

And there is a file editor in your cpanel which you can use to edit/create/manage your files.

Are you sure ?? It works quite the reverse for me - i.e. clicking on the file/folder names brings up the list of actions on them, and clicking on the icons to the left opens up that particular folder - i.e. for me I've to use the icons for navigating between folders...

  5. Why Its So Hard To Get Hosting At Astahost
    Feedback and some suggestions (24)
    I think the reason why its so hard to get hosting here at Astahost is because of its technical
    nature. While many of us who haven't got hosting yet (me included) know a fair bit about
    Computers and other technical aspects there isn't much need to share it here, since the
    auidience is made up mainly of people with the same amount of knowledge or more. Most of the
    tutorials to be written have been written I think. Many helpful tips that would benefit people, we
    all already know. To make "quality" posts you must not just be technically minded but be the best of

  6. Astahost Can Have A Wiki?

    I was just wondering if this was feasible after what Mark420 or someone mentioned in one of the

    contain a good summing up of all that happens in the forums. Once members participate in a thread,
    solve a problem, discuss, or come up with something, we could put that info in the Wiki of that
    section almost summing up and polishing all the information the thread had gained. That way, some
    one wanting to search the knowledge base would really find it easy to get what they need. ....
  7. Ideas To Improve Astahost
    My thoughts as an experienced webmaster (8)
    One thing I see wrong already is the title, "Free Web Hosting" on the main page. This just screams
    unprofessional and tells people that Astahost shouldn't be taken seriously. I think you should
    change the title to, "Astahost | Quality Web Hosting for Free" or something of that sort. This
    greatly improves the standards and shows people how great the hosting here is, while the current,
    "Free Web Hosting" sounds like typical web hosting you can find at any other crappy free web host.
    Because who wants "Free Web Hosting" when they can have "Quality Web Hosting for Free?"....
  8. My Thoughts On Astahost
    various comments as an Astahost User (4)
    I have been on Astahost for quite a while and decided to make an honest review on my thoughts about
    this host. Astahost is a really nice web host. I found that the product itself is comparable to
    paid hosting such as http://www.rydia.net . But the neatest aspect of Astahost, in my opinion, is
    the kindness and flexibility of the staff members. Honestly, if you go to support in ANY other free
    web hoster, they just say "too f&$$ing bad, CASE CLOSED!" But the staff members here work hard for
    you . And as though the bandwidth isn't enough in Astahost (which it is, by t....
  9. Holy Crap! I Didn't Know This About Astahost!
    :: -30 credits = off with your site :: (13)
    Holy crap, I'm going to complain about Astahost. From a poster here: QUOTE Once your
    hosting credit reach a negative number, your site will be taken down. Once it reaches -30, your
    account will be terminated and all files will be deleted. So as long as you don't get down to
    -30, all your files will still be intact. OH CRAP!!! I am NOT secure with Astahost. What if I
    croak? Or get kidnapped? Run over by a car? Struck with lightning?!!! I want my site to be here
    after I die! Lets see, I'm 14, most people live to 100 so: 100 - 14 = 86 I can only maint....
  10. Praise For Astahost
    Free webhosting was never this good (2)
    Just one week ago, my account with Astahost was suspended out of the blue. I wasn't out of
    hosting credits, so it's not possible that I'm suspended due to a lack of hosting credits. I
    waited for days for my account to come back, I PMed the admins like Nilsc who replied that my
    account was suspended due to "higher cpu usage". I thought, this was it, that's what you get for
    free web-hosting. I thought my account is terminated. Then I emailed OpaQue, and he kindly took
    time to restore my account despite him being busy with setting up a new server over at Co....

    What's the basis for the name Astahost? (19)
    There's usually a story behind every name. Sometimes the message or the story is obvious

    Hashbang is a shortened version of #!/bin/bash (hashbangslashbinslashbash). I choose this some time
    ago and have used it in other online forums. It reflects my passion for *nix systems and using the
    command line. I don't always use the bash shell but I find it's the most user friendly. And
