FileEC is a simple and flexible plug-and-play file manager, easy to use and plenty of options. Send files to your customers, create new users with dedicated folders, or simply use it as your personal file cloud. Access from any device, manage users and general settings from an intuitive administration panel, customize it to your brand.
Master Admin is the first User in configuration settings, and is the only who can’t be deleted.
All users may have 3 types of roles:
1. User is every user who can view and download files but have no rights to upload/edit/delete (only if FileEC is set as private, otherwise everyone can view the lists and download the files)
2. Admin is every user who can upload/edit/delete files (set more or less permissions in preferences panel)
3. SuperAdmin is every user who can upload/edit/delete files and access everywhere, including administration panel (take care with this role). In users panel you are able to: update password, username and e-mail for Master Admin; update password, username, role, e-mail, assign dedicated folder(s) for all pre-existing Users, and set a maximum available space; add New Users.
When adding or editing a user, if you type in “New Directory” field, a new folder inside the main uploads directory will be created for you, and added to the user’s directories list (you can also assign pre-existing folders)
By default the system provides download links to copy-paste where you prefer. To enable E-mail file sharing you must compile the send system e-mails from field.
If password protection is enabled, any user will be able to choose a password or get a random password to protect sharing links.
File sharing, New user notification and Password Recovering use PHPmailer, with the possibility to choose between the php mail() funcion (default), or SMTP mail. Using the same server of your installation as primary email is strongly recommended, to avoid being flagged as spam. (e.g: if the script is running on www.example.com, the mail sender should be something like noreply@example.com, or info@example.com)
