FrontPage Extensions are system files that should be available on a web server for specific features of sites made with Microsoft FrontPage to function efficiently. When these files are not on your server, the websites will still operate, but with restricted functionality and they may display errors every now and then. In addition, in case your web hosting supplier has FrontPage Extensions on their servers, you will be able to publish your content straight from the application, eliminating the need to employ any third-party FTP client so as to upload files. All you need to do is to enter you hosting account FTP info in the FrontPage settings and the application will do the rest. Future updates can be performed in the same way, making FrontPage an excellent choice for people with little or no experience.
FrontPage Extensions in Shared Website Hosting
While many website hosting providers these days stop their support for FrontPage Extensions, we have no such plans. We believe that you shouldn't be restricted with regard to the software that you can use to build your website and it's best to have a choice whether you will employ FrontPage or another app. In case you already have a site, you'll be able to move it over and prevent losing many years of work since FrontPage Extensions are supported with all of our shared website hosting packages with no exception. You may enable them for any domain or subdomain inside your account by pressing the Edit button for it in the Hosted Domains area of your Hepsia web hosting Control Panel. Activating the option takes a couple of clicks and then our system will add all the needed FrontPage system files in the domain/subdomain folder, therefore all that you will need to do after that will be to upload your website files.
FrontPage Extensions in Semi-dedicated Servers
If you have a semi-dedicated server package from us, you are able to work with FrontPage to make your site, as FrontPage Extensions are installed on the cloud platform where your web hosting account will be made. Enabling and disabling the feature is done with several clicks and per domain or subdomain through the Hepsia Control Panel which you will get to manage the account, so you are able to easily have a FrontPage main site and a blog or a forum script within a subdomain without problems. Our system will add all system files necessary for such a site automatically in the selected folder. Many web hosting companies today stop the support for FrontPage Extensions, however we prefer to leave this choice to you, instead of making you change the web design application which you use and throw away all of the funds and efforts that you've invested over the years to build and maintain your website.
