Welcome to the Freeola support pages. This guide is designed to help you upload files to a Freeola VIP Hosting service using the Simple Webspace Interface within MyFreeola. For more internet help topics please visit our main Support Page.
This Simple Webspace Interface is designed for the viewing of files already uploaded to your hosting service, or to add small files to your Freeola webspace. If you are looking for full file management, or the ability to upload larger files via FTP, we would recommend using an FTP Client, such as Filezilla.
This feature is only available on websites hosted using our legacy VIP or VIP+ Hosting service.
Firstly you will need to login to your MyFreeola account and select VIP Web Hosting from the Web Sites & Hosting section of the left-hand navigation menu.
You should then see all of your Freeola Web Hosting subscriptions listed. In order to proceed you will need to select Go To Settings from beside the relevant subscription.
The following page will now display the details relevant to your Freeola Web Hosting.
Select Upload Files to continue.You will now be given two options, select I want to quickly view my files and upload them using the Simple Webspace Interface option, then click Continue.
You will now be shown the contents of the htdocs folder of your Freeola webspace. In order to add new files to this webspace select Upload Files to this Folder. On the window that opens simply drag and drop files into the box on the window that opens and they will start uploading immediately. Alternatively, click the box to bring up a file browser to select your files that way.
If you are looking to replace existing files already on the server, ensure you have selected the Overwrite Files option.
Please Note: Only files can be uploaded using this system, no folders will be uploaded.
The links next to each file or folder will allow you to rename, delete or modify the permissions of these. Unless you have specific reason to do so, we would recommend not changing any of these settings as it could prevent your website from displaying.
To move files and/or folders to a new folder, first select them by ticking the boxes, and then click the Move Selected button. On the next screen, select the folder you wish to move the content to, then Move Selected File.
It is also possible to create new folders. using this system through the Create Folder button. Simply enter the name of the folder you would like to create and click Create Folder. This folder will be usable immediately.
