As your catalog of uploaded content grows, keeping it organized becomes essential. The My Files section of your CloudFam dashboard is a fully featured file manager designed to help you sort, find, and modify your content with ease.
Here is a guide to mastering your file manager using folders, search tools, and bulk actions.
To access your catalog, click on My Files under the Management section on the left-hand sidebar. This page displays a comprehensive list of all your active files.
For each file, you can instantly view:
Name: The current title of your file.
Size: The total file size in MB or GB.
Downloads: The total number of times the file has been downloaded.
Uploaded: The date the file was added to your account.
Actions: Quick tools for managing individual files.
Folders are the best way to keep different types of content separated (e.g., separating software updates from media files).
Creating a Folder: Click the New Folder button located in the top right corner of the screen. Give your folder a descriptive name and save it.
Moving Files into Folders: To move a file, locate it in your list and click the Move icon (the arrow pointing right) under the Actions column. Select your destination folder to instantly relocate the file.
Navigation: Your current folder path is displayed at the top left of the file list (starting with the "Home" icon). Click on any part of the path to jump back to previous directories.
If you have hundreds or thousands of files, scrolling to find a specific one isn't practical.
The Search Bar: Use the "Search files..." box at the top of your list to instantly locate a file by its name.
Sorting Filters: Next to the search bar, use the dropdown filters to sort your view. You can filter by status (e.g., "Active Only") or sort by date added (e.g., "Newest") to quickly find your most recent uploads.
CloudFam allows you to manage files one by one or in large groups to save time.
Individual Actions: On the far right of every file, you will find four action icons:
Copy Link (Chain icon): Instantly copy the shareable download link to your clipboard.
Move (Arrow icon): Relocate the file to a different folder.
Edit (Pencil icon): Rename the file.
Delete (Trash icon): Send the file to your Trash bin.
Performing Bulk Actions: If you need to move, delete, or generate links for multiple files simultaneously, use the bulk action checkboxes.
Check the small box to the left of each file you want to manage.
To select everything currently visible on your screen, click the master checkbox at the very top of the list column.
Once multiple files are selected, bulk action options will appear, allowing you to move or delete all selected items with a single click.
