FrontPage Extensions are a set of system files and folders needed by websites created with Microsoft FrontPage in order to operate correctly. Without them, you may still use the application to create websites and upload your content on the web server, yet the websites will have restricted features, thus the user experience won't be the same. An additional advantage of using a hosting service with FrontPage Extensions available is that you're able to publish your webpages directly on the server without the need for any third-party software as long as you enter your account FTP info in FrontPage. This characteristic will make it quite simple to start and maintain your web presence even if you don't have any previous knowledge, as you are able to update the website in the future just as fast.
FrontPage Extensions in Hosting
We support FrontPage Extensions with each and every hosting plan that we offer and unlike the vast majority of hosting service providers these days, we do not plan to discontinue thisfeature, so it will be up to you if you will start and maintain your web presence by using FrontPage or another website design software. After all, if you are moving an active site to our servers, it's quite possible that you have invested money, time and efforts and we wouldn't like that to go in vain. You will be able to enable FrontPage Extensions independently for each domain or subdomain through the Hepsia Control Panel, therefore it won't be a problem to have the main website designed with FrontPage and employ a script app in a subdomain for a forum, for example - the two will not interfere in any way. If you decide that you want to switch to another platform, you will be able to deactivate FrontPage Extensions with just a few clicks.
FrontPage Extensions in Semi-dedicated Servers
FrontPage Extensions are accessible with all semi-dedicated server accounts that we provide and we don't plan to remove this characteristic from our plans, therefore you won't be forced to change companies or the web design app that you use as you need to do with lots of providers these days. It's our belief that years of work shouldn't go in vain, so if you move a website made with FrontPage here, it will work flawlessly and you'll be able to host it on our cloud platform long term. You can activate the feature with just a few clicks inside your account - sign in to your Hepsia Control Panel, head to the Hosted Domains section, click on the Edit button for a certain domain/subdomain, then click on the FrontPage Extensions option which you will notice and you are ready. Our system will do the rest, so you can proceed and upload your world wide web content without the need to do anything else manually. If you need to disable the feature, you can follow the very same steps.
