You can easily upload files to your website using the cPanel File Manager. Here's how:
- Log in to your cPanel account. You can usually access it by adding
/cpanel
to your domain name (e.g.,www.yourdomain.com/cpanel
). - Locate the File Manager icon. It's typically found in the "Files" section of your cPanel dashboard.
- Open the File Manager. This will display a directory structure of your website's files.
- Navigate to the desired directory. You can use the breadcrumb navigation at the top of the screen to move through folders.
- Click the "Upload" button. This button is usually located near the top of the File Manager window.
- Select the files you want to upload. A pop-up window will appear, allowing you to browse your computer and choose the files to upload.
- Click "Upload" to begin the process. The progress bar will show you how much data has been transferred.
Additional Tips:
- File Size Limits: Be aware of any file size limits imposed by your hosting provider.
- Permissions: Make sure you understand the file permissions and how they affect your website's functionality.
- Multiple Files: You can upload multiple files at once by selecting them in the pop-up window.
Example:
Let's say you want to upload a new image to your website's "images" folder. After opening the File Manager, you would navigate to the "public_html/images" directory, click the "Upload" button, select the image file from your computer, and click "Upload."
Remember, it's important to understand the file structure of your website and the permissions associated with each file. This will help you ensure that your uploaded files are accessible and function correctly.
