Please Note: Currently, the [WP File Manager plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-file-manager/) on version `7.2.2` or greater does not work here at Pressable. Use the [Advanced File Manager](https://wordpress.org/plugins/file-manager-advanced/) instead and setup following the guide below.

The [Advanced File Manager plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/file-manager-advanced/) allows you to view, edit, delete, and upload files from the WordPress dashboard interface on your website.

On Pressable, the **Public Root Path** will need to be adjusted for the plugin to function properly and show the correct site installation.

This can be done by activating the plugin and then navigating to **File Manager > Settings** and look for the *Public Root Path.*

You will need to change the **Public Root Path** to:

`/srv/htdocs`

Then click Save Changes and reload the Advanced File Manager and you’ll see the site files displayed properly.
