3 Best PHP Web-Based File Managers

As a web developer, I know how important it is to have a reliable file manager. If you are not able to use FTP or SSH for file management, there are still ways to manage your files. One great option is to use a web-based file manager for PHP.

PHP is one of the most popular programming languages used for web development, and there are a variety of web-based file managers available to help you manage your files.

This type of file manager is easy to use and provides a range of features, such as allowing you to upload and download files, create and rename directories, and even edit text files.

In this blog post, I’m going to share with you my top three picks for the best PHP web-based file managers. I’ll go over the features of each one and why I think they’re the best. So if you’re looking for a file manager that’s easy to use and reliable, read on to find out which one is right for you!

Simple-File-Mamager

Simple File Manager is a single-file PHP code that allows you to manage files in a folder on your web server. It is easy to use – just copy the index.php file to the folder you want to manage.

It has several advantages, such as being Ajax-based for speed, allowing drag-and-drop file uploads, having a modern and aesthetically pleasing interface, and being usable from an iPad.

It also provides XSRF protection and an optional password for extra security.

• The library is all in a single file. There are no images, CSS, or JavaScript files.
• Actions are ajax based so it is fast, but doesn’t break the back button.
• Drag and drop files to upload is allowable if the folder is writable by the webserver ( chmod 777 www/html/upload )
• The design is kind of like Dropbox and less like Windows Explorer.
• It supports Unicode file names.
• The interface is usable from an iPad
• XSRF protection, and an optional password.

User Management#back to top

You only need to open it and use the following credentials (you should change them!)
Admin user: admin/admin@123
Normal user: user/12345

 // Users: array('Username' => 'Password', 'Username2' => 'Password2', . ) $auth_users = array( 'admin' => '$2y$10$axZWlisI..n9xmULN4gbhectUdOpu0z64xb9ysycHQ5ubKYcEY5sW', //admin 'user' => '$2y$10$.mwmDmZH2003EjFobn86QuU3kr6NAmUYAaMVWQdLXYkirie7EJxj6', //12345 'guest' => '$2y$10$a.DMI5sRjAnvhb.8rFAXY.XPSEO/eatVb4qCMmTc2YcxTDKp9xMyC' //guest ); 

To enable/disable authentication set $auth_users to true or false.

 // Auth with login/password (set true/false to enable/disable it) $use_auth = true; //change to false to disable the authentication 

Password

Generate secure password using PHP password_hash() password generator

 $auth_users = array( 'username' => 'REPLACE YOUR GENERATED PASSWORD HERE' ); 

If not able to generate password or facing any issue, than generate password using tinyfilemanager itsef on tinyfilemanager > settings > Generate new password hash or alternative password generator here

or you can use directly password hash in tinyfilemanager it self

 $auth_users = array( 'username' => password_hash('password here', PASSWORD_DEFAULT) ); 

Readonly users

Set user role as readonly permission and thay don’t have permission to create, edit, delete and upload files

 // Readonly users (usernames array) $readonly_users = array( 'user', 'user1', 'guest' ); 

User Specific Directories

Assign specific directories to each user

 //array('Username' => 'Directory path', 'Username2' => 'Directory path', . ) $directories_users = array( 'admin' => 'root', 'user' => 'root/user-folder', 'guest' => 'root/guest/temp' );
