Overview

File Manager brings a complete file management experience directly into your PteroCA panel. No more switching between PteroCA and Pterodactyl - your users can browse, edit, and manage server files from the same interface they use to manage everything else.

Key Features

File Browser

• Navigate server directories with sortable columns (name, size, modified date)
• Breadcrumb navigation for quick directory traversal
• Recognizes 30+ file types with distinct icons (code, images, archives, configs, logs)
• Select multiple files with checkboxes for bulk actions

Built-in Code Editor

• Full-featured editor powered by CodeMirror 6
• Syntax highlighting for JSON, YAML, properties, shell scripts, and more
• One Dark theme for comfortable editing
• Line numbers and scroll support
• Save changes directly back to the server

File Operations

• Create new files and folders
• Upload files directly to any directory
• Download files with one click
• Rename files and folders
• Copy files within the same directory
• Delete files individually or in bulk

Archive Support

• Compress multiple selected files into a single archive
• Extract archives (.zip, .tar.gz, .tar, .rar, .7z) in place

Smart & Safe

• Friendly warnings when opening binary or oversized files (instead of cryptic errors)
• Respects all Pterodactyl subuser permissions - users only see actions they're allowed to perform
• Server owners and PteroCA admins have full access by default

How It Works

Once installed and enabled, a "Files" tab appears on every server management page. That's it - no additional configuration needed. Users click the tab and immediately have access to their server's file system.

Multi-Language

Includes translations for 14 languages out of the box: English, German, French, Spanish, Polish, Russian, Ukrainian, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Indonesian, Chinese, Hindi, and Swiss German.
