FrontPage Extensions are system files that need to be present on a web server for specific features of sites designed with Microsoft FrontPage to function correctly. In case these files are not on your server, your websites will still work, but with restricted functionality and they may display errors every now and then. Furthermore, when your hosting supplier has FrontPage Extensions on their servers, you'll be able to publish your content from the application, eliminating the need to work with any kind of third-party FTP client in order to upload files. All that you have to do is to enter you web hosting account FTP information in the FrontPage settings and the software will do the rest. Future updates can be done identically, making FrontPage a fantastic option for people with minimum or no experience.
FrontPage Extensions in Shared Hosting
We support FrontPage Extensions with every single shared hosting plan that we provide and unlike the majority of web hosting companies today, we will not discontinue thisfeature, so it is up to you if you will start and maintain your worldwide web presence using FrontPage or some other web design software. After all, when you are moving an existing website to our servers, it's quite possible that you have spent time, money and efforts and we wouldn't want that to go in vain. You can enable FrontPage Extensions independently for each domain name or subdomain through the Hepsia Control Panel, so it won't be a problem to have the main website designed with FrontPage and use some script app in a subdomain for a community forum, for instance - the two will not interfere in any way. If you decide that you wish to switch to some other platform, you will be able to deactivate FrontPage Extensions with only a few clicks.
