SFTP & File Manager

Most hosts provide a browser file manager, SFTP, or both.

Browser file manager

Good for small edits and quick uploads. Large folder operations may be slower.

SFTP

Useful for moving many files and keeping the folder tree visible.

Upload checklist

  1. Stop the resource when replacing important files.
  2. Upload the complete resource.
  3. Check for an accidental double folder.
  4. Confirm the manifest is directly inside the resource folder.
  5. Preserve config backups before overwriting.
  6. Start/restart and read the console.

Success check

Your final path looks like:

resources/[category]/ResourceName/fxmanifest.lua

—not ResourceName/ResourceName/fxmanifest.lua.
