KratosPC Posted May 8, 2011 Posted May 8, 2011 I usually use the cPanel code editor for quick touch ups and changes if I happen to be using the file manager, nothing major. Just had a really bad experience with it, though, and now I think I'm just going FTP all the time. During a save, the server connection went south. What was left of a very long page of code was nothing more than a header and a php include. Luckily, I make constant backups, so not a major loss, but definitely a major reality check. For those new guys: Always make backups before doing any on-server editing! Anyway, I'll also say awesome work to the Heliohost staff for getting things back up again after the power outage! You guys rock!
jneves4pt Posted May 8, 2011 Posted May 8, 2011 I was going to do a backup yesterday but I forgot... You're like a reminder Thanks.
jje Posted May 8, 2011 Posted May 8, 2011 AjaXplorer might be a good alternative to the cPanel File Manager. Save as you go along.
leiban Posted May 8, 2011 Posted May 8, 2011 That's a reminder that, "Never code online, keep it on local".
jje Posted May 8, 2011 Posted May 8, 2011 Yeah - it's easy to FTP files across to the Web Space. There are also many alternatives: http://wiki.helionet.org/wiki/Uploading_files_to_your_site
