How to Manage Server Files and Schedule Backups

Managing Server Files in the Browser

The dashboard includes a safe file browser that lets you adjust server contents without standalone FTP tools.

1. Log into your dashboard and navigate to the file manager.

2. Browse directories to view configuration files, world data, and plugin folders.

3. Click on text files to read or edit their contents directly in your browser, then save your changes.

4. Use the interface controls to upload new files from your computer, download existing files, or compress selected directories into zip archives for storage.

5. Access the built-in Modrinth integration tab to search for compatible server additions tailored to your exact game version, then download them directly into your server setup.

Scheduling Automated Tasks

Set up automated routines to protect server progress and maintain system stability.

1. Open the task scheduler section of the web panel.

2. Set up recurring automated jobs, such as automated world saves, to write world data to disk regularly.

3. Configure scheduled backups to periodically archive important world and server files, protecting your community against unexpected data loss.
