How do I edit my site's files without FTP on Faaaster?

The site's Access tab offers an online File Editor — "Browse and esit your files theough a graphic interface.", as the interface puts it. No FTP client is needed.

Open the editor

Open the site, Access tab.
In the File Editor section, click Show.
In the window that opens, note the Login and Password, then click Access the file editor.

The File Editor section of the Access tab.

Precautions

Editing a file live on a production site is risky. Create a backup first (Backups tab), or work on a test environment.

If Read only mode is on (Security tab), files are write-locked, except for /wp-content/uploads.

A more comfortable alternative

For regular changes, the VS Code extension connects your usual editor to the site through a secure SSH tunnel — more practical than an online editor for ongoing work.
